CarpinetoSpolverino
Dry, Medium Bodied style of Sangiovese
About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of SangioveseCarpineto Spolverino (Feather Duster) is an exciting Sangiovese blend from Chianti that pokes a little fun at the traditional Italian wine laws which prohibit a wine being labelled 'Chianti Classico' being bottled under screw-cap. As we love our wines to be fresh and vibrant in Australia, this brilliant (and affordable!) Chianti, closed with a Stelvin Lux, has enticing red cherry aromas blended with a touch of tobacco leaf and spice. Wonderfully medium-bodied, the palate is rich and generous, although supported by that typical Tuscan structure of zippy acid and soft, powdery tannin. Saluté!

Spolverino (Feather Duster) is a Sangiovese based wine that pokes fun at traditional Italian wine laws which prohibit a screw-cap wine to be labelled as ''Chianti Classico''. As most Australians like wine to be fresh and vibrant, we will all too gladly accept this Chianti in-all-but-name, with all its vibrant liqueur cherry characters with its touch of tobacco leaf and spice.
