Tasting Note

It’s safe to say that this wine is the most representative wine from the Casanova estate. Its name ‘Nero’, derives from “vino nero” which is what Tuscan red wines were tradionally called. On the nose it expresses hints of blackberries, blueberries, and ripe cherries with slight spicy notes. Upon tasting it displays a full body with a very immersive character. The tannins are velvety and in perfect harmony with extraordinary freshness. The excellent acidity makes for a wonderful finish.

Product Notes

La Spinetta Il Nero di Casanova is a well-structured Italian red wine made from grapes grown in the heart of Tuscany. It is a blend of Sangiovese and Colorino grapes, which give it a deep ruby color and a complex aroma of red fruits, spices, and vanilla. On the palate, this wine has a balanced acidity and a long, velvety finish. It is an excellent pairing for classic Italian dishes such as pasta Bolognese or grilled meats. La Spinetta Il Nero di Casanova is a wine that showcases the best of Tuscany's winemaking tradition, combining modern techniques with centuries-old craftsmanship.
