Tenuta Foresta Dolcetto

Deep purple, dry, fruity Dolcetto from an old estate vineyard, picked early and kept in steel for a fresh style with unexpectedly high acidity.

Tasting notes

A bouquet of forest violets followed by a lot of black ripe fruits; fresh, with high acidity, low alcohol and some notable tannins.
