Description
Carpineto, founded in 1967, produces this elegant, complex and boldly flavoured IGT from Cabernet sourced from hillside sites in Gaville (near Florence and Chianciano/Montepulciano in Vino Nobile di Montepulciano). Consistently crafted to offer deep, dark fruit, leather, spice and meat notes with polished tannins. A fine choice for grilled steak.

Tasting Notes
Intense garnet with amber highlights. Racy nose combining hay, liquorice and spices with black fruit undertones. Elegant, robust, concentrated palate starting to deliver its noble aromas with a lively, tense feel. Menthol mid-palate and a long finish. [Drink through 2025+.] Score - 92.
