Product description

Classification: Dolcetto d'Alba DOC

Grapes: Dolcetto 100 %

Origin & Soil: vineyards in the areas of Barbaresco, Treiso, Alba and Monforte. Formed originally by strong marine currents in the Miocenic era, the soil is a mixture of sand and clay.

Taste: Ruby red in colour. On the nose, fragrant, fruity bouquet with hints of flowers. This is a very versatile piedmontese wine and a perfect match for a variety of dishes. Ideal serving temperature is 16°C and it is best enjoyed between 1 and 3 years vintage date.

Climate Vintage: The 2005 vintage has an irregular climate but to sum up it is satisfying. After a relatively mild winter, with scarce precipitations, there is a fresh but poor in rains spring. At the start of summer, there is an heavy thermic rise with some fresh periods but without rains. September starts with some rainy days. Then the climate has stabilized and it comes back summer until the end of the month, with large temperature ranges, useful to exalt the sugar and the aromatic substances stored in the grapes.

Vinification: The grapes, harvested the 16th of September to the 28th of September, appear healthy, with an excellent sugar content and a good level of acidity.After pressing, the grapes arrive at a temperature of 27-28°C, with a maceration of 7 days. The malolatic fermentation ends in the middle of December, the wine stays for some months in tanksteels and it is bottled in Spring.
