The Wines Dolcetto

The Wines Dolcetto Wine Details
Price: $22.00 per bottle

Description: Intense cherry, pomegranate, mineral, spice, white pepper, licorice and leather on the nose. In the mouth the balance is precise with the fruit, spice, acids and tannins all in line. This Dolcetto is more concentrated and extracted than one might expect for this variety.

Varietal Definition
Dolcetto:
Italian red grape from the Piedmont area of the North West. Produces soft varietal wines for early drinking. Gives lots of up front fruit with soft tannins with a style not unlike the Gamay of Beaujolais.
