Product Notes

Tenute Lunelli's Tenuta Castelbuono Carapace is a prestigious Italian wine that exemplifies excellence and craftsmanship. This exceptional wine is produced in the coveted region of Umbria, known for its rich history and fertile vineyards. The Carapace blend is meticulously crafted from a combination of Sagrantino and Merlot grapes, resulting in a bold and full-bodied red wine with intense flavors and aromas. With its deep ruby color and complex structure, this wine offers a harmonious balance of ripe black fruits, spices, and velvety tannins. Tenuta Castelbuono Carapace is a testament to Tenute Lunelli's unwavering commitment to producing world-class wines that embody the authenticity and passion of the Italian winemaking tradition.

Tasting Notes

A deep, luminous ruby red in colour; concentrated and refined. The nose is a triumph of blackberry jam and blueberries – typical of the variety – with attractive and intense notes of cherries in brandy, carob and rose petals. Its traditionally-styled profile is further enhanced by liquorice and chocolate notes. It has a distinct creaminess on the palate, along with very powerful, mellow fruit. The finish is long and persistent, with precisely defined tannins of rare finesse, elegance and gentleness.
