Die-hard Super Tuscan fans, beware - Carpineto Dogajolo Toscano Rosso might just win your heart after the first sip! Sangiovese blended with an ‘unsanctioned’ grape variety (in this case, Cabernet Sauvignon), this bottle has a daring streak, combining the power of a young wine, the elegance and balance of wood aging and a fruity, fragrant bouquet. Super fruity, complex and intense with cherry, coffee, vanilla and spice, it's full and soft in the mouth – a true delight to drink! No wonder this wine is Italy’s young unofficial star! Open this bottle pre-dinner alongside a spread of Italian cold cuts, or serve it as the main event alongside Hong Kong-style braised lamb stew (foo jook yeung yuk bo!).
