Dogajolo Toscano Rosso IGT 2018 - Carpineto

The Dogajolo Toscano Rosso by Carpineto is the classic among baby supertuscans. As with all Super Tuscans, the Chianti Sangiovese vine is the heart of the wine at Dogajolo Rosso. In addition, Cabernet Sauvignon and other grape varieties are added. The colour of the Dogajolo Rosso is best described with a bright cherry red. It lies mid-dense in the glass and smells elegantly of ripe sour cherries, complemented by some pomegranate and red currant. Delicate shades of vanilla and a fine hint of oak complement.

On the palate,  the Dogajolo Toscano Rosso is pleasantly fresh, lively and grippy. Presents but well integrated tannins and a fresh fruit acid give the wine a feel and character. An excellent food companion who does not give up his mind even with a rich, greasy diet.

Vinification of Dogajolo Toscano Rosso The grapes are harvested

separately according to grape varieties and vinified separately. They then mature in small, used oak barrels, in which the biological acid conversion also takes place. After bottling in March and April of the following year, this red wine from Tuscany is sold directly, but can also be aged for several years without any problems.
