The story behind Caposaldo
Chianti is Tuscany's everyday red, built on Sangiovese and known for bright cherry, a dusty herbal edge and firm but friendly tannin. It is a table wine by design, the kind poured with tomato sauce, roasted meat and hard cheese across Italy. Moscato d'Asti comes from Piedmont and is lightly sparkling, low in alcohol and gently sweet, with peach and orange blossom.
We stock Caposaldo in Commack in small quantity, one or two bottles at a time, so what you see is what we have.
