Red
Vilot
By Ca' Viola, Dogliani, Piemonte, Italy
First made in 1996, the younger brother of Barturot and the estate's quick, ready-to-drink everyday wine.
Tasting notes
Deep ruby colour. Fresh fruit on the nose with a pleasant note of blackberry on the finish. Agile, very fluid and balanced on the palate; freshness and easy drinking throughout.
