Dolcetto in a vibrant, unadorned register of purity and immediacy.

Fresh

Juicy

Almond

Supple

A lifted and direct Dolcetto centred on fruit clarity and gentle structure.

Nose: Black cherry, wild plum, and blueberry, edged with violet and a faint almond note.
Palate: Medium-bodied with moderate acidity and soft, present tannins. Dark fruit remains bright and expressive, supported by a subtle bitter-almond grip characteristic of the variety.
Finish: Clean and gently dry, with lingering black cherry and a delicate nutty echo.
Serve: Cool room temperature, a little under the table's. Warmer and the alcohol shows; cooler and the fruit stays defined.

The rainy 2024 gave a paler, lighter Dolcetto than usual: easy to drink and still deep.

Dolcetto from old vines on the Gattera hill, near the Annunziata in La Morra, facing west and north-west.

Vines: 100% Dolcetto, around 60 years old.
Soils: Calcareous clay with sandy components, contributing roundness and approachability.
Farming: Sustainable viticulture with manual harvest and attentive vineyard work.
Cellar: Fermented in stainless steel.
Additions: Minimal sulphur.
