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

Review by Mr. JEAN LUC L. Published on February 16, 2019

Dark, almost opaque color. Subtle on the nose. You have to give the wine a little nudge—swirl it—to coax out some aromas of black fruit and prunes. More expressive on the palate, with notes of licorice and, once 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!
