New Arrivals/Restock

Dolcetto is receiving renewed interest as of late and with good reason. It plays an exciting role in food pairing with its more moderate acidity and intense colour and tannins (a decanter is almost always a friend to this grape). Planted on Alberto's west facing sites where Nebbiolo would have a harder time fully ripening, Dolcetto grown on Barolo's Tortonian soils gives a much more structured and serious expression than one would normally expect. It is nevertheless an awesome wine to dive into young while you wait for Alberto's Barolo's to age. It is nevertheless structured enough to develop nicely over 3-5 years itself! Bright, intense purplish red colour, find notes of blackberry, blueberry, ripe red table grapes, and black cherry. Medium-bodied and well-balanced. A beautiful example of the "little sweetie," as it translates! (This wine is unrefined & unfiltered and may therefore throw a natural deposit with age.)
