"It's ripe and perfumed with dark fruit and game characters together with cedar and floral complexity on the nose. The palate is equally engaging, exhibiting medium-full weight and velvety texture with plenty of supple tannins providing superb structure and length. The extra years of ageing in barrel and bottle has enriched the mouth feel and added layers of savoury flavours." – Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Carpineto takes its name from the Greek - Carpos, meaning fruit. The modern day winery was founded in 1967. Since then, the partnership between cofounders Giovanni Carlo Sacchet and Antonio Mario Zaccheo has developed an award winning, international reputation for consistently elegant wines with unmatched intensity and extract. The four Carpineto estates encompass 424 hectares of land spread among Tuscany's most prestigious appellations. From the heart of the Chianti Classico region to their extensive Vino Nobile holdings in Montepulciano, Carpineto has garnered a strong global following fuelled by their unique combination of traditional and innovative winemaking.

Carpineto was the first Italian winery to receive the Robert Mondavi Trophy for excellence and has been nominated Best Italian Wine Producer at the 34th International Wine and Spirits Competition.
