Fragrant, smooth, delicious.
Carpineto's Chianti Classico comes from estate Sangiovese (90%) and Canaiolo vines; it was aged in casks for six months, then left to age in bottle for an additional six months in cellar.
A fragrant sweet and spicy nose of cherries, roses and vanilla, pipe tobacco, licorice and leather leads to a smooth and notably fresh palate. High-toned red fruits are woven with cedar, vanilla, tobacco and leather flavours. It's a delicious and cohesive classico with chalky cocoa tannins.

Delicious, crackling, snappy.
Made from 100% Verdejo from Rueda (a truly underappreciated variety and region) this crisp white offers immediate enjoyment. Aromas of peaches and honey, young pineapple and pomelo with white blossoms lead to a palate that has lovely weight and sweet fruit. It is bouncy and charming with a juicy finish. A great sipper, or partner to Asian dishes, salads, seafood or olives, bread and cheese.

Tasty, racy, snappy.
Made from 100% Verdejo from Rueda (a truly underappreciated variety and region) this crisp white delivers zesty citrus crunchy tree fruits, wildflowers, wet stone and banana aromas. Like the nose, the palate is zesty, lively, and snappy with a slick texture and flavours of bitter orange, grapefruit and orchard fruits.
