"SELVA DEL MORO", TOSCANA, IGT 2008
  Fattoria Campoperi s.r.l 

Located in the hills of Castellina in Chianti, you will find the 380-acre property of Fattoria Camporeri. Their 90-acre vineyard includes Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot vines. Recent years have been spent in modernizing their winemaking techniques and replanting of many vines that has resulted in the production of really good tasting Tuscan wines.

 The name "Selva del Moro" means "Forest of the Stranger" hence the picture of a stag in the forest on the front label.

Tasting Notes: A "Super Tuscan" without the "super" price.  This is just an honest wine, packed with ripe, dark-berry aromas and flavors, all intermingled with a hint of earthiness.
