The wine region of Dolcetto d'Asti
Piedmontese DOC on the hills of Asti (around Nizza Monferrato and Canelli, ~200 ha shared with Moscato and Barbera), marl-limestone soils, temperate continental climate. Dolcetto is the exclusive king (100%, early-ripening): supple and fruity with notes of red cherry, plum, blackberry, violet and a typical bitter-almond touch, soft tannins and low acidity — best drunk young on the fruit. Lighter style than neighbouring Dolcetto d'Alba or Ovada. A convivial everyday Piedmontese red.
