The wine region of Dolcetto d'Acqui
Piedmontese DOC on the hills of Alto Monferrato around Acqui Terme (Alessandria), airy clay soils. Dolcetto is the exclusive signature red (100%): deep ruby with violet hues, dry and supple with intense notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, bitter almond and an earthy spiced touch, round tannins and fresh acidity — a direct style despite the name ("little sweet"). Superiore version (12. 5%, 12 months) more generous.
