This Dolcetto d'Alba exhibits the typical characteristics of the region. The balance of acidity, tannins, and alcohol is harmonious. Fruitiness dominates both the nose and the palate, making this wine delicately indulgent. A Piedmontese red that is best enjoyed while young!

Review by Mr. JEAN LUC L. Posted on February 16, 2019
Dark, almost opaque color. Subtle on the nose. You have to give the wine a good swirl to coax out some aromas of black fruit and prunes. More expressive on the palate, with notes of licorice and, again, prunes. A lovely hint of bitterness emerges, followed by pronounced tannins. A serious wine—the opposite of frivolous—but here, that seriousness is a virtue!
