2013. Fruit, mint, and a lot of coriander. More interesting than your typical dolcetto.

Earthy notes on nose. Dark cherries light soft tannins.

Elio Altare’s 2013 Dolcetto d’Alba is a great introduction to the wines of one of Piedmont’s most inspired growers. Lavender, violets, plums and black cherries are all supported by bright acidity in a pulsating, vibrant Dolcetto full of personality. (AG)

Ideal with food. On the light end of medium-bodied. Cherry, white pepper, foliage, earth. Refreshing.

Absolutely loved the bright, juicy, transparent red cherries bursting from this! I often get a meaty savoriness in dolcetto, and it showed up in this too to play a balancing act with all that delicious fruit. A stand up medium-ish (but not in quality!) wine to go with things like roast chicken or on its own.
