GUINIGI

Borgo Scopeto 2022 Borgonero Toscana IGT, Italy ($29) 

This Super Tuscan blend of 40% Sangiovese with 20% each Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon epitomizes chiaroscuro, or the interplay of light and shadow. While grounded in notes of cranberry, spiced plum, and roasted beet seasoned with oregano, sage, and dusty earth, it’s elevated by vivid acidity and a velvety-smooth mouthfeel courtesy of polished tannins.
