Carpentieri started growing grapes in 1997 but only made its first wine in 2012, and is already doing exciting things with Nero di Troia. Heady red fruits and oak spice. Super-smooth, ripe raspberries and delicate strawberries warmed in the sun. Very fine, chalky-textured tannins and a savoury, dry finish. Nervy, bright acidity holds everything together, with a round, satisfying middle. Nero di Troia is sometimes described as the Nebbiolo of the South, and in this wine you can see why.
