particularly rocky soil Explanation: Whoa! Nope, you're on the wrong track. Scheletro means texture, but texture of a coarse nature, of a gravel-pebbly texture, or soil of rocky, schistous character, with lots of pebble and gravel. Note this description of soils in the Chianti zone: "Chianti: Un dato comune a quasi tutto il territorio è la ricca presenza di scheletro ovvero di grossi ciottoli e sassi di origine calcarea. " |
