an excellent representation of the Dolcetto grape, from the Piedmont region. This wine has a vibrant ruby-red colour and opens with inviting aromas of ripe cherries, plums and a hint of violets, supported by a subtle spiciness. On the palate the wine offers a juicy, supple structure with soft tannins and refreshing acidity, making for a delightfully drinkable red wine. The fruity notes of cherries and red berries are harmoniously complemented by a light spice on the finish, giving this Dolcetto a fine balance between fruit and spice. With this Dolcetto di Ovada, Tacchino brings an approachable yet characterful wine to the market, a perfect match for pasta with light sauces, grilled vegetables or antipasti. It is a classic wine that beautifully showcases the simplicity and charm of the Dolcetto grape.
Perfect with antipasti, risotto, poultry and soft cheeses.
