Paolo Scavino Dolcetto D’Alba DOC 2021
Volume: 750ml
The Dolcetto is an indigenous Piedmontese grape for long time majorly planted in our area. This varietal requires good exposure though not too warm in order to preserve a good acidity. We make a limited production of Dolcetto from a single vineyard Bricco Ambrogio, in Roddi Village, where the vines are over 60 years old.
Purple color, fresh and delicate aromatics of cherry, blueberry, spices and flowers. The structure has a lightness and brightness in it. Well defined by good tannins and harmonious acidity this wine has a pleasant freshness and intriguing character. Dolcetto d’Alba is the everyday wine usually combined with the typical Piedmontese antipasti.
