| Community Tasting Notes (average 88.6 pts. and median of 88 pts. in 20 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by cweiss on 5/6/2014: Dark with purplish rim. Quite ripe on the palate, tannic. Not an early-drinking Dolcettto. (2611 views) | | Tasted by indiscriminate palate on 11/30/2013 & rated 89 points: Dark berry, savory notes, fairly rich, but well-balanced with very good acidity. Very nice. (2580 views) | | Tasted by sastewart on 10/25/2013 & rated 90 points: Better than I expected. Pretty floral notes, smoke on the nose. Dark red fruits, earth, bacon. Firm with nice minerality could last another couple of years. 90 points (2515 views) | | Tasted by Rezy13 on 9/10/2013 & rated 90 points: Tuesday Night Double Blind <$30 (Bin 75): Dark core with light purple rim; lilac, violets, purple fruit, white pepper, faint herbs and smoked meat; dark tangy berry, rocky, served a little warm, traditional, a little rough hewn; very high quality Dolcetto that reminded me of a more subdued Northern Rhone; this could even benefit from even another couple years in bottle. (2882 views) | | Tasted by AccaDacca on 6/23/2013 & rated 87 points: Nice dolcetto. Enjoyed with penne alla vodka, good acidity. (2684 views) | | Tasted by DSP on 3/26/2013 & rated 88 points: Not a whole lot to comment on - well-integrated wine with good acidity and soft but drying tannins. Good match for spaghetti with lamb meatballs - nice weeknight wine. (972 views) | | Tasted by RussK on 2/16/2013 & rated 91 points: Russk Italian tasting at sunset corners. Best dolcetto I have ever had. But tue yr must make a difference, since my notes about other vintages were lackluster. Buy at $20. (987 views) | | Tasted by Orlandus on 12/15/2012 & rated 90 points: Dark purple color, strong jammy bouquet, big in the mouth (14% alcohol), deep tannins, not particularly complex, but lacking any obvious flaws. A big but nevertheless very drinkable wine. Went beautifully with spaghetti and (tomato-based) meat sauce. Recommended. (807 views) | | Tasted by nschmidt on 11/23/2012 & rated 88 points: OK but not as good as Grimaldi. (1297 views) | | Tasted by Magno on 10/7/2012: Abrimos outra hoje no almoço. Um belo dolcetto, de ótima relação cxb apesar dessa concentração excessiva. O 2008 é mais austero e bem interessante. (1656 views) | | Tasted by Magno on 8/19/2012: Sempre gostei dos Dolcettos desse cara, e em especial, do Vigna Tecc, que vem dos vinhedos mais antigos (60+ anos) e não passa por madeira. Infelizmente parece que esta é a última safra em que este vinho foi feito sem passagem por madeira. Cor rubi linda, sous bois, fruta vermelha , alcool (pasmen!) quase que totalmente integrado apesar dos 14,5% Continua sendo um belo Dolcetto apesar da fruta um pouco doce e do alcool nas alturas. 2009 foi quente no Piemonte ? (1548 views) | | Tasted by wineduggery on 8/8/2011 & rated 90 points: Simple, yet had an understated elegance about it. Red fruit and sweet spices. A perfect quaffer wine to start a meal with friends. I'm definitely getting more of this. (1950 views) | | Tasted by Ben Christiansen on 4/26/2011: Some brett and earthy funkiness on the nose. Also quite a bit of new oak and new oak tannins. (1850 views) |
