2022 Dolcetto d'Alba, Diego & Damiano Barale, Piedmont, Italy

Description

The 2022 Dolcetto is never aged in wood, in order to retain the purity and freshness of the fruit. This comes from a single east-facing vineyard in Monforte d’Alba, with grey marl topsoil surrounded by woodland. These vines were planted by Diego and Damiano Barale’s grandfather, Giuseppe Barale, over 50 years ago. As a result of these old vines and unique terroir, this Dolcetto has a delicate floral rose aroma, followed by beautiful blue and red fruits on the palate, and a serious depth. Overall, this is a wine of surprising profundity.

About this wine

Dolcetto d’Alba

Dolcetto d’Alba

Dolcetto d'Alba is a DOC zone producing wines exclusively from the Dolcetto grape. Dolcetto is an important Piedmontese variety that’s suited to the calcareous tufa soils common to Barbaresco. The antithesis of Nebbiolo, it ripens a month earlier, producing wines that are low in acid yet high in tannins. Dolcetto d’Alba is the grape’s most highly-regarded incarnation and makes the perfect antipasti wine.
