The Carpineto Chianti Classico Riserva 2011 is a rustic, yet elegant, red wine from Tuscany. This wine was aged for over two years in French and Slovenian oak, giving it layers of smooth texture and rich flavors. Notes of juicy raspberry and warm vanilla abound on the palate. The wine is full-bodied and has a long finish.
 
This red wine will age well in the cellar. You can also enjoy it now with a variety of rustic dishes. Consider pairing it with a savory beef roast or wild game.
