  Dark cherry and blackberry, earth, and some spice on the nose. Nice acidity and not overly fruity. Soft tannins. Pleasant finish. Great value at $13.00. I’ll buy more.

  Was expecting the worst here, so pleasantly surprised by the balance of fruit, tension, mild forest floor funk, and spice. Impressions pretty consistent w/positive CT comments and WA90 / WS91 TNs. Nice value play here, and if it was cheap syrupy plonk I'd certainly bash it, simply not the case with this bottle.

  Looking at this family's website, they certainly seem to have their hearts in the right place, yet the most recent vintage of the century seems to have capsized, not lifted this particular raft. 3 days in and this is still syrup, not wine. Honestly, I'd forgotten how bad wine can be. I'm sure there are mafia boiler rooms where enslaved Albanians fake the big Bs, but how can there be enough margin in repacking Aussie plonk as 12 dollar dolcetto to justify this masquerade? This is going in the Nutribullet with greens so I can pretend I lead a healthy lifestyle

  Easy drinking blackberry and cherry over earthy tones and fine tannins that lengthen the finish. Much better than many dolcetto that tend towards grapiness. My bottle lacked the Yellowtail characteristics that others have noted. This may be my favorite dolcetto.
