The wine region of Dolcetto di Ovada
Piedmontese DOC (DOCG Superiore) in Alto Monferrato, hill vineyard up to 600 m, clay and limestone soils. Dolcetto signature as 100% single varietal ('little sweet' for pulp but dry wines): intense ruby red wines with black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet and bitter almond notes, firm tannins and slightly bitter finish — the most structured version of the grape. Fresh and fruity to drink young, or Superiore-aged for longer keeping.
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: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
