Features
Carpanè harmoniously expresses the diversity of Valpolicella, in which it was born, enhancing the emerging ‘irregularities’ with respect to the organoleptic canons of the area’s products. A decisive ruby red colour, a bouquet of flowers and berries; on the palate it offers pleasant herbaceous sensations with flavours of spices and bitter almonds.
