Dolcetto from such a warm vintage as 2017 delivers unique characteristics, featuring dark, rich fruit. This is an easy-drinking wine that is generous but plump and ripe. The 2017 Dolcetto d'Alba Vigna Bricco di Vergne is made in stainless steel only, so the clarity of that primary fruit is that much more intense. Some 40,000 bottles were made.

Effusive blueberry, pomegranate and violet aromas and flavors mark this densely packed red. Dusty tannins circle the finish, which is long and expressive. Drink now through 2021. 2,800 cases made, 600 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Dolcetto d'Alba Select to Add
