2009 Dolcetto D’Alba Sorano di Treiso

Viticulture and Winemaking: This world class, single vineyard Dolcetto is sourced solely from the Sorano vineyard in the town of Treiso.      

Tasting notes:  Colour is ruby red with violet reflections, with notable intensity in its fruit and a richly powerful, expressive personality. This expansive, generous Dolcetto is full of dried flowers, violets, raspberries and minerals. The palate is dry and full flavour, offers plenty of detail with excellent length and a clean finish. The wine’s maceration and fermentation took place in stainless steel vats for 8-10 days, and further matured for 6 months in stainless steel tanks, 2 to 4 month in bottle.

$33.84 per bottle (12 / case)
