About this product

Carpineto 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!

Can't believe the previous review, this wine is great, smooth but also with some substance as well

Disappointing

Very disappointed with this wine. Some very harsh mineral characters and overly tannic. I note that is not classed as a Chianti and I can see why. So many better wines available at this price.

Terrible wine, poor taste

Unfortunately it was not good. Not even close to being nice and smooth like a sangiovese should be. It was quite poor in taste
