A bit darker and more brooding than I’d last remembered. A case for cellaring Dolcetto.

The 2020 Dolcetto d'Alba is a wine of extreme beauty. Pliant and expressive, with terrific depth, the 2020 is wonderfully deep. Dark cherry, licorice, sandalwood, spice and leather lend notable complexity. This is such a great example of what Dolcetto is and can be. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2022)

Blackberry, hard candy. Sweet with very restrained acidity and tannins. Perfect with Pastaria braised beef garganelli but overpriced IMO.
