Carpineto Dogajolo Toscano Bianco IGT 2021



Country: Italy

Region: Tuscany

Grape: 40% Chardonnay, 30% Grechetto, 30% Sauvignon Blanc

Aging: Unoaked

ABV: 13%

Notes: Natural Wine, Organic & Sustainable


Winemakers notes: Straw yellow with green highlights. Pleasantly fruity, elegantly aromatic, and harmonious. Medium body with agreeable acidity and a dry, pleasantly velvety, soft finish.


Tasting notes: Carpineto’s 2021 Dogajolo Bianco mirrors the beauty and timeless charm of Tuscany. Grown on hillside vineyards under the central Tuscan sun, the wine embodies the terroir from which it sprung, beginning with a glint and bright straw color. Beautiful aromatics entice you to take that first sip. Fresh and lively on the palate, with subtle apple and pear notes on the front palate that is quickly followed by hints of melon and citrus, all of which are underlined by a pure zippy minerality, the hallmark of the finest white wines of Tuscany.


Pairings: Excellent as an aperitif or with typical Mediterranean cuisine, such as salads, pasta, seafood and white meats. Perfect with flavorful, spicy Asian foods.


Our Price: $13.00

Domaine La Fage Nicolas 2017


Country: France

Region: Languedoc-Roussillon

Grapes: 100% Grenache Noir

Aging: Bourguignon barrels during 12 to 15 months.

Alcohol: 15%

Notes: Vegan


Winery notes: Named after our son, a beautiful and generous wine. Bright ruby color. Loaded with ripe red fruit notes on the nose. Concentrated fruit on the palate with soft tannins and flavors of raspberry, cassis, blueberries and blackberries. The finish is pleasant and long.


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 93

"It was exciting to see that the 2017 Nicolas, all old-vine Grenache from three terroirs, was showing more red fruit and freshness than the 2016. It's still rich, deep and velvety in texture, but it's livelier and a similarly rocking value."


Pairing: All red meats (lamb and beef) prepared in all ways, burgers on the grill, grilled kabobs and barbecue ribs.


Our Price: $14.00
