The wine region of Dolcetto d'Alba
Piedmontese DOC of the Langhe south of Alba, the everyday wine of Barolo and Barbaresco growers. Signature Dolcetto ("little sweet one"): purplish, fruity reds with signature notes of black cherry, blackberry, fresh plum, violet and bitter almond on the finish, present tannins but little acidity, a round and moreish palate — to drink young (1-3 years). A perfect match for cured meats, ragù pasta and Piedmontese cheeses. ~1,900 ha across 33+ communes.
The wine region of Piedmont
Kingdom of Nebbiolo: Barolo and Barbaresco DOCG, long-ageing reds with firm tannins and lively acidity, complex aromas of withered rose, sour cherry, tar, truffle and undergrowth. More accessible, tangy Barbera on red fruit, supple, crisp Dolcetto. Sweet, floral sparkling Moscato d'Asti, mineral, lemony Gavi (Cortese) white, round, almondy Arneis from Roero. 50,000 ha across the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, UNESCO.
The word of the wine: Mineral
Taste reminiscent of gunflint, chalk and many nuances of the mineral world, and reinforcing, especially in white wines, the notion of freshness and the sappy character.
