Red
Langhe Dolcetto
By Tonino Marchisio, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
Dolcetto from the Il Ciliegio vineyard, made and aged in steel only. The producer gives it a lifespan of 2-3 years.
Tasting notes
Intense ruby with violet reflections. Intense red fruit with notes of sweet almond. Rich, full and enveloping while keeping its underlying freshness, with exuberant but balanced tannins and an almond finish.
Pairs well with
Light starters, first courses, boiled vegetables; the classic everyday wine of the Piemontese. Also cured meats, ragù pasta, white meats and fresh cheeses.
