Carpineto Dogajolo Toscano 2022 (1.5L)

A Sangiovese-dominant blend rounded out with Cabernet, this Tuscan red from Casa Vinicola Carpineto sits in the easygoing, everyday category that Tuscany does so well. The 2022 vintage is built for early drinking rather than the cellar, a still red meant to be opened and enjoyed while it's fresh.

Expect juicy, approachable fruit here, soft red berries with a touch of ripe sweetness and tannins that stay gentle and unobtrusive. It's the kind of bottle that drinks happily on its own and makes a fine first step into Tuscan wine. Best caught in its youth, while that red-toned fruit is still vibrant.
