La Spinetta’s polished Tuscan Sangiovese - dark cherry, spice, velvet tannins.
La Spinetta Il Nero di Casanova Sangiovese 2021 is the signature red of the Casanova estate in Tuscany, an expressive, full-flavoured Sangiovese that balances ripe fruit richness with freshness and beautifully velvety tannins. Named for the old Tuscan term “vino nero” (“black wine”), it’s a modern classic style: immersive, structured, and incredibly satisfying.
Tasting Notes
