Overview
Carpineto Dogajolo Toscana Rosso 2022 is an exceptional red wine that epitomises the artistry of Tuscany. With a carefully crafted blend of 70% Sangiovese, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% other varietals, this wine stands as a youthful Super-Tuscan that delivers both robust flavour and refined sophistication. With a 13% ABV, a full-bodied structure, and a harmonious balance between fruitiness and oak-aged complexity, it offers an extraordinary tasting experience.
Tasting Notes
Dogajolo Toscana Rosso 2022 is an excellent expression of Tuscany’s diverse terroir. On the nose, it unveils an inviting bouquet of ripe red cherries, mingling seamlessly with subtle nuances of coffee, vanilla, and spice. The palate is smooth, rich, and full-bodied, offering a well-rounded blend of red fruit flavours, including cherry and berry, followed by a touch of toasted oak and a spicy finish. The oak ageing imparts a graceful maturity, providing a wine that is both approachable and sophisticated, making it a perfect choice for those looking for a high-quality, versatile red.
Food Pairing
This full-bodied red wine pairs wonderfully with rich dishes such as grilled meats, hearty pasta with tomato-based sauces, and aged cheeses. It also complements charcuterie and Mediterranean dishes, particularly those featuring grilled vegetables and olives. The wine’s depth and complexity will enhance a wide range of flavorful meals, making it a fantastic addition to both casual dinners and more refined occasions.
Winemaking
The winemaking process behind Carpineto Dogajolo Toscana Rosso 2022 is a delicate balance of traditional techniques and modern innovation. After the grapes are handpicked, they undergo fermentation in stainless steel, followed by aging in oak barrels. This careful process allows the wine to retain its fresh fruit character while gaining a nuanced layer of complexity from the oak, resulting in a refined yet accessible wine.

| Winery | Established in Greve in Chianti in 1967 by the Sacchet and Zaccheo families, Carpineto farms 500 hectares of sustainably farmed land, spread amongst five carbon-neutral estates in the regions of Chianti Classico, Alto Valdarno, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Brunello di Montalcino, and Maremma. Carpineto holds the VIVA certification for sustainability and is accredited with ISO 14001 and IFS. Formerly IWSC Italian Wine Producer of the Year, Carpineto was the first ever Italian winery awarded the IWSC International Winemaker of the Year. Antonio Zaccheo is now assisted by his son Antonio and daughter Francesca, who have both previously worked in the wine trade in the USA. Giovanni Sacchet's daughter, Caterina, joined the Carpineto winemaking team after finishing her viticulture. Carpineto sustainably farms 500 hectares of land, including 200 hectares of wood. Indeed, their woods and vineyards absorb 26% more carbon dioxide than they produce. Extreme attention is paid to preserving the vineyards' biodiversity. The family adopts modern agricultural methods on both the vines and the soils, and eco-friendly products are applied conscientiously. The vines are grown in the heart of Tuscany in their estate vineyards in sand, clay, and limestone soils, which produce elegant wines. |
