Red
Dolcetto d'Alba
By Poderi Roset, Barolo, Piemonte, Italy
Dolcetto from the 1.67 ha Dronera vineyard, aged in steel, about 13,000 bottles a year at 13% alcohol. Over time the aroma moves from fresh to very intense ripe fruit, which the producer ties to a soil similar to that under its Nebbiolo.
Tasting notes
Ruby red with violet nuances. Winy and round on the nose, recalling fresh fruit. Dry but velvety, perfectly balanced.
