April 1, 2023 - This is in a really nice zone right now. Lots of red berry fruit, good acidity and smooth tannins.

November 30, 2020 - Pleasant fruit, but not complex and rather light bodied. Would not buy again. Tasted it again, has quite a bit of tannins that don’t add to the complexity of the wine. I would rate it a bit higher now but better Italians at this price are available.

July 7, 2020 - Rustic and appealing. dusty cherry, cinnamon bark and a bit of grit. Again, quite pleasant even if those descriptors are not.

April 5, 2020 - A simple dolcetto. If you’re drinking it this young, it would benefit from a decant. It evolved nicely in the glass towards more earthy/savoury notes.
Ripe plums and black fruit and black cherry, sweet spice
Medium acid
Medium tannins
Quite juicy
Medium- length
This does the job as a table wine
