Note di degustazione
Impenetrable violet ruby. Serious and brooding, inky nose. Lots of dark and red fruit and ends quite austere. Has real length, but tannins suggest longer maceration time than usual and further ageing. Although the tannins look a touch astringent, it is a very good wine. (WS)

The 2010 Dolcetto d'Alba Coste & Fossati is quite firm in this vintage. It possesses plenty of fruit and intensity, but it is a serious Dolcetto with tons of underlying structure that needs time to resolve itself. The energetic, wiry finish is super elegant.

Anticipated maturity: 2012-2016. This is another superb set of wines from Aldo and Milena Vajra. What else is new? I am sure one day the Vajras will receive the broader recognition they so richly deserve. In the meantime, savvy readers know the exceptional quality these wines deliver for what remain very modest prices. Importers: Martin Scott Wines, Little Neck, NY; tel.
