Thursday, November 3, 2011 - 100% Dolcetto from the Langhe hills east of Alba. Medium - ruby core with a pink rim and very light legs. The nose is medium intensity with youthful aromas of cherry, strawberry, dried flowers and a hint of black pepper. The palate is dry, medium + acidity, low ripe fine-grained tannins, 12.5% alcohol, light bodied, medium + flavor intensity of cherries, raspberry, cranberry, spice, minerals and medium length on the finish. A good quality Dolcetto, not overly complex but well balanced with regards to fruit, acid and alcohol. A great deal at around $10-$12 US retail.
