Description
Carpineto was founded in 1967 by Giovanni Carlo Sacchet and Antonio Mario Zaccheo, two Italian winemakers from outside of Tuscany who dared to dream of making world-class wines in the region they'd fallen in love with. Their modern approach to winemaking helped make Chianti Classico a household name. This is consistently an elegant wine with vibrant cherry and spice character that pairs beautifully with cured meats or steak Florentine.
Tasting Notes
The 2018 Chianti Classico is bright and beautifully focused in the glass. Sweet red cherry, mint, white pepper and chalky notes give the 2018 a brilliant upper register to match its mid-weight translucent personality. Medium in body and vibrant, the 2018 is so expressive. Readers will find a classically austere Chianti Classico built on tension. This blend of Sangiovese and other indigenous varieties works so well here. Drinking window: 2022-2033. [To enjoy tonight, decant for one hour.] Score - 91. (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, Sept. 2020)
