  Dark toned bouquet, wee bit natural wine feel (what ever that is). The palate is slightly funky but retains clean and fresh character, rich fruit, round profile but good focus, blueberry pie, dark chocolate, pleasantly ripe plum flavors and violets. The aftertaste lingers nicely in the rear palate. In many ways this is in the same vein as Giuseppe Rinaldi's and Elio Sandri's Dolcettos, serious but a lot of fun, just lovely now.

  Drunk at dinner at Via del Corso in Berkeley. Quite dark and structured for a Dolcetto, speaking to its quality and the seriousness of its production by a quality Barolo producer. Dark, medium bodied and bursting with red-black berry fruit, it had the characteristic tail-end bitterness that I associate with this grape. Fresh and lively, it paired well with a variety of foods: tuna crudo and a roast duck leg in a beautful pan sauce.

  Medium-dark purplish red with bluish-purple rim. Dark cherry, raspberry, plum, bubble gum, violet and wood. Medium-high acidity, medium-high tannin. Fresh and fruity. Good structure and nice grip on the palate. Long sweet finish. This bottle should be drunk in the next few years.
