Tasting Notes

The 2019 Dolcetto d’Alba is a stand out. Deep and layered in the glass, the 2019 is exceptionally polished from start to finish. In 2019, the Dolcetto offers a bit more aromatic breath than some past vintages, with less overt concentration. That’s a combination that is especially appealing. Inky dark fruit, licorice, spice and menthol build into the creamy finish. Antonio Galloni
 
Importer note (Bibendum)
The wine was made only with natural yeasts, and each parcel was vinified separately before blending. There was no wood contact. The 2019 really is a surprising wine (in the best sense!) that shows a significant evolution in style. It's a super-fine, autumnal-noted wine with characters that you might more readily associate with Nebbiolo (dark cherry, menthol, forest floor, florals, pan juices and almond oil) than Dolcetto. Really classical in both its flavour spectrum and structure (there are plenty of fine tannins) this is a wonderful Piemontese red that is already superb drinking. It will be a revelation for lovers of classic Piemontese reds.
