The palate is generous, fresh, and medium-bodied, with fine refined tannins, a juicy mouthwatering core, bright acidity, and a clean, charming finish.

Food Paring

Pair this fresh Dolcetto d'Alba with appetizers, pasta, vegetables, egg-based dishes, white meats, beef, lamb, or game to highlight its juicy fruit and lively acidity. It is also an easy everyday red for charcuterie, pizza, and relaxed family-style meals when you want something vibrant, food-friendly, and lightly chilled.

Professional Reviews

93 Wine Enthusiast

"Pop rocks meet purple plums in this electric Dolcetto that refuses to sit still. Violets and damson fruits burst from the glass with teenage energy, while the palate crackles with fresh blackberries and bright acidity. It's the kind of wine that makes you wish all serious things could be this much fun."

90 Jeb Dunnuck

"A medium magenta/ruby color, the 2024 Dolcetto D'Alba is elegant and lifted with notes of grenadine, fresh flowers, bright spice, and wet stone. Medium-bodied, it moves lightly across the palate with refined tannins and a clean finish."

91 Falstaff

"Bright purple-red colour with a fine rim. Fine aromas of violets and crisp sour cherries on the nose, plus bitter almond. Clearer on the palate, with very fresh fruit on electrifying acidity and a slender body."
