Scarpetta Frico Sangiovese

Scarpetta's Frico Sangiovese brings the quintessential Tuscan grape to your table in a friendly, approachable package designed for everyday enjoyment. This isn't a precious wine that demands special occasions – it's the kind of bottle that makes Tuesday night pasta feel like a proper Italian dinner, no passport required.

The name 'Frico' refers to a crispy cheese dish from Friuli (where the Scarpetta founders first met), while 'Scarpetta' itself describes the Italian tradition of using bread to soak up the last bit of sauce on your plate. Both names speak to the food-friendly philosophy behind these wines.

Made in a bright, fruit-forward style that emphasizes Sangiovese's cherry notes and refreshing acidity, this wine delivers authentic Italian character without breaking the bank. It's the vinous equivalent of that neighborhood Italian restaurant where the food is delicious, the atmosphere is welcoming, and you always leave happier than when you arrived.
