Note di degustazione
Dark red-ruby. Enticing aromas of black cherry, licorice and menthol, with a minty nuance emerging with air. Juicy, brisk and linear; quite dry and focused, with acidity to the fore. In a very fresh style. "Two thousand ten was challenging for dolcetto owing to rain and cold weather at the end of August," noted Sandrone. "We threw half of the grapes on the ground. But the quality of the rest was surprising."

The 2010 Dolcetto d'Alba is a beautifully articulated, vibrant wine loaded with varietal character. In keeping with the character of the year, this is less fruit driven than many other recent vintages, but that is actually a plus here given the low yields that inform the estates wines. The Dolcetto shows terrific intensity and verve from start to finish.
