Incredibly soft and velvety, this has loads of chocolate, spice and black cherry flavors. The finish is bold, well extracted and soft.

Rich, thick and impressive on all fronts, this Dolcetto from Piedmont offers a smooth texture, creamy consistency and loads of aromatic intensity. You’ll get black fruit, spice, chocolate, cola and cedar. Both complexity and elegance are at hand and the wine is dense, modern and long-lasting.

This beautiful blend of Barbera and Dolcetto shows characteristics of both native grapes (although the Barbera component is an overwhelming 90%). There are mature fruit aromas here with cherry, blackberry and raspberry but there’s also a touch of spice cake and leather. From the 2004 vintage, the wine shows a soft and sophisticated side.

Here’s an informal expression of Nebbiolo from young vines with tight aromas of pressed blue flowers, licorice, dried currants and cherry cola. The wine shows both a healthy acidic and tannic component and could pair with braised pork or lamb.

Here’s a rich and nicely concentrated Dolcetto di Dogliani with beautiful aromas of mature berry fruit and sweet spice. That extra richness and softness that you feel in the mouth would work nicely with succulent pork or beef dishes.

This is a fun, easy-going Dolcetto that should well pair with pizza or meat cold cuts. Wild berry, spice and dark fruit notes open the bouquet, and the mouthfeel is crisp and bright.

Dolcetto Sorí dij But has all its cards firmly in place. The wine’s aromas are pristine and fresh with a focus on bright fruit and sweet berries. The mouthfeel is soft, supple and a bright burst of acidity keeps it lively in the mouth.

This Dolcetto offers a thick nose rich with warm tones of leather, pipe tobacco, dark chocolate and mature blueberry. There’s a tiny element of horse or wet animal but it doesn’t distract too badly from the overall picture.
