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.

"The 2023 Dolcetto D'Alba is a youthful purple/red color and is pretty and lifted on the nose, with notes of crunchy fresh berries, black and red fruit, wet stone, and fresh flowers. Medium-bodied, it offers refreshing tension on the palate, with even tannins and snappy, fresh acidity. Raised without the use of oak, it was aged for eight months in stainless steel before bottling."
