Tasting notes
The Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna dei Prey shows a deep ruby color, with an intense bouquet of dark cherries, plums, and a hint of almond. The palate is full-bodied and structured, with firm tannins and a long, savory finish. [Profiles: bold, fruity, structured, tannic, complex, dry]
