Notes on the producer
Carpineta Fontalpino’s Chianti Classico is a pure expression of Sangiovese, capturing the varietal’s depth, elegance, and earthy charm. Located just outside the historic city of Siena, the estate is nestled in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, where the vineyards benefit from optimal sun exposure and mineral-rich soils. Farmed biodynamically and surrounded by wild flora and fauna, the estate emphasizes natural rhythms and low-intervention winemaking. The result is a wine with structure, freshness, and a soulful nod to Tuscan tradition.
