About this wine
Giacosa Fratelli Dolcetto d'Alba DOC from Piedmont, deep ruby red with violet highlights, fresh aromas of black cherry, plum, and violets, medium-bodied with soft tannins and bright acidity, notes of juicy dark fruits, almond, and the slightly bitter finish that is the hallmark of good Dolcetto.
Open 10 minutes before serving. Best enjoyed young.
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.
Goes with
Charcuterie, antipasti, grilled sausages, white meats, and pizza.
