Dolcetto d'Alba DOC 2022

Volstrekt unieke Dolcetto!
Een jaar gerijpt op amfoor en een jaar op fles.
Rijk geschakeerd, fris, luchtig, lang.

Gian Luca zelf zegt er dit over:

Can a Dolcetto be traditional, meaning it is a drinkable daily wine but also have complexity at the same time?

I spent more than ten years trying to resolve this dilemma.
I had to find a 65 year old vineyard with a south-east exposure on laminated and sandy St. Agatha Marls. I had to take away instead of add and learn to how to wait because suitable vineyards need time, regardless of the varietal.

The Dolcetto Elia wants to be drunk as an every day wine, but it is also a clear
expression of a great forgotten varietal and a unique terroir with a great capacity
to age. For this reason the Dolcetto has found a place in my parcel selections.
