This wine is a delicious red that exudes drinkability. It offers so much in so little time. Fresh fruit, blackberry and spices all stand to attention, in a pure expression of freshness. This powerful Dolcetto shows beautiful aromas with a deep complexity.

"A bright ruby color, the 2024 Dolcetto d'Alba Mandorlo emphasizes purity and aromatics, offering floral perfume, ripe red berries, and subtle almond notes. Medium-bodied, it has velvety tannins and a supple texture balanced by bright acidity that keeps the wine lively and fresh. Polished and expressive, it should drink well over the next several years. About 10,000 bottles were produced. Drink 2026-2030."
