About This Wine

Scarpetta

Frico Rosso

Bobby Stuckey, nominee for the James Beard Foundation’s Outstanding Wine and Spirits Professional award and former wine director for the 3-Michelin-starred restaurant French Laundry, developed this delicious red blend. Perfect for people who love wines from Tuscany, it’s a juicy gem with light tannins and cherry, cranberry and subtle spice aromas.

Wine Region

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
