Description

The fruit here comes from the top of Luigi Giordano’s Qualuin vineyard, which sits between the revered Pajé, Faset and Asili. The approach is very traditional, with a maceration time of seven to eight days. Malolactic conversion takes place in stainless steel before moving to concrete for ageing. The 2022 is bursting with juicy black cherry and a pure, clearly defined strawberry character.

About this wine

Dolcetto d’Alba

Dolcetto d'Alba is a DOC zone producing wines exclusively from the Dolcetto grape. Dolcetto is an important Piedmontese variety that’s suited to the calcareous tufa soils common to Barbaresco. The antithesis of Nebbiolo, it ripens a month earlier, producing wines that are low in acid yet high in tannins. Dolcetto d’Alba is the grape’s most highly-regarded incarnation and makes the perfect antipasti wine.
