2015 | Carpineto | Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva (Magnum)

On the nose there are notes of preserved plums, rum pot and fresh wild berries. Plus a hint of wood spice and nutty hints. Medium-weight on the palate, fresh and light, slightly persistent tannins, mineral-like finish.

Producer Information

Carpineto is an Italian producer with several estates across highly regarded Tuscan DOCG regions. It was founded in 1967 by Giovanni Carlo Sachet and Antonio Mario Zaccheo with the aim of being a high-quality Chianti Classico producer. Carpineto's original focus on quality, and on the Classico region, was uncommon in the 1960s when Chianti was more famous for its large-scale production and the 'fiasco' straw basket. The Chianti Classico DOC had only been formalized in 1966 and didn't get elevated to DOCG status until the 1980s. Carpineto has since expanded beyond Chianti to other well-known Tuscan regions. It has five estates in total, two in Chianti Classico and one each in Maremma, Montepulciano, and Montalcino. Over 90 percent of the wine it produces is red and Sangiovese is easily the most important variety, dominant in Carpenito's most prestigious wines: Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Carpineto also has a range of single-vineyard selections and proprietary blends at the IGT level, including a few Super Tuscans. Cabernet Sauvignon plays a significant part in these wines, while Chardonnay is the most represented variety in its limited selection of white wine. Carpineto is now exported to more than 70 countries.
