a beautiful expression of the Dolcetto grape, from the prestigious Ovada area in Piedmont. This Superiore wine, which undergoes extra ageing, shows a ruby-red colour and a rich aromatic palette of ripe black cherries, plums and a touch of violets. On tasting, the wine reveals a velvety mouthfeel, with balanced tannins and refreshing acidity. The palate is fruity and intense, with a light spiciness and a long, refined finish. Here the Dolcetto grape delivers its characteristic depth and elegance, but in a softer, rounder version thanks to the longer ageing.
