Dosset, Ferdinando Principiano - 2021

Item # 46194 750mL

A bit of a rarity in Piedmont these days, this Dolcetto is decidedly old-fashioned and lower in alcohol. Located in Montforte, Ferdinando has created a very biodiverse vineyard teeming with flora and fauna. Light in color, body, and tannin, this is an extremely fresh and quaffable dry red. Pair with cheese, olives, and mortadella.

Dolcetto

A red grape variety grown in Piedmont and nearly nowhere else. Dolcetto-based wines are not sweet, as many people might surmise on hearing the name; the Piedmontese declared it "dolce" only because it is lower in acid than the wines they're used to. Dolcettos are usually meant to be enjoyed young. Some of the best ones come from the area around the town of Alba.
