Tasting Notes

A vibrant and expressive Dolcetto with bright red fruit at its core. Aromas and flavors of black cherry, cherry, and crushed cranberry lead the palate, followed by layers of dried herbs and white pepper spice. The wine finishes with crisp acidity and fine, powdery tannins that give structure and freshness, creating a balanced and savory finish.
