Maremma Toscana DOC
The province-wide DOC for the Tuscan coast south of Bolgheri, upgraded from IGT in 2011 and now one of Tuscany's largest by volume. It's a broad church: warm, generous Sangiovese and Cabernet-Merlot reds with plum, blackberry and scrub, a growing wave of Vermentino that is the region's best-value white (lemon, sage, saline), and native oddities like Ciliegiolo and Alicante. Expect ripeness and easy drinking more than structure, at 12 to 25 dollars.
