Carmignano wines

[scimmiatinit]

Barco Reale is not just a wine... it was once an important "natural reserve" wanted by the famous MEDICI family from 1626 until 1772.

Both Carmignano and Barco Reale have Cabernet and this grape has been introduced since the first denomination was established not like Chianti where Cabernet(and Merlot)is(are) recently arrived (so a modification..) wanted by many producers to internazionalize (may I say that?) their wines !

In this sense we can say that Cabernet is part of the story of Carmignano wines and always affected their style !
