Dolcetto D’alba ‘bricco Dell’oriolo’ D.o.c.

Overview

A Dolcetto is produced from the Bricco dell’Oriolo single-vineyard, with total south exposure, and from one of the region’s best areas for this variety: Montelupo Albese.
Intense color, red fruit, blackberry, blueberry, rose, sweet spices, and deep fruity and floral flavors persist for long. Aromatic and mineral.

It is ideal for drinking young, given its complexity after a few years.
It is aged exclusively in steel to exalt its attractive freshness.
Extremely intense. An explosion of flowers and fruits.
