Fun Facts
The Capponi family of Florence dates back to 1054 and has a colorful history. Count Capponi has an ancestor who stopped the French king from invading Italy and his family estate was used as a set for the second Hannibal Lecter movie.
The Capponis were famous for being enterprising merchants and entrepreneurs, developing the silk trade in Florence and moving into banking. The wine estate, Villa Calcinaia, was acquired in 1524.
The history is so wide and vast that you could read for a full day then forget that he is coming to Jefferson! Please watch the video below on youtube for getting the jest of what you are in for when he visits.
