Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red with violet highlights. Fresh aromas of black cherry, plum, and violets on the nose. Medium-bodied on the palate with soft tannins and bright acidity, notes of juicy dark fruits and almond, with a slightly bitter finish that is the classic hallmark of the Dolcetto variety. Dolcetto is Piedmont's everyday red, lower in acidity than Barbera, with a distinctive almond-bitter finish that makes it a natural partner for food.
