Soil characteristics

Dolcetto the name comes from the local dialect “Ducet” (small hill) because normally it was cultivated in the lower part of the hill where the slopes are gentler. The soil of this vineyard in Barolo is soft and sandy. The wines originate they have always a very elegant perfume, fruit and good complexity. Even in wet years in this vineyard it always manages to have good quality grapes, due to the high percentage of sand and good drainage in the soil.

Production process

For Dolcetto from the town of Barolo the harvest time is between 8-15 of September. When the grapes arrive to the cellar they are destemmed, crushed, and placed in steel tanks to undergo fermentation not exceeding 26 °C / 78 °F. After about 7 days the wine will then be separated from the skins, transferred to another tank and maintained at about 18 °C / 64 °F to help start the malolactic fermentation. After the second fermentation is finished it will remain stored in cement until bottling (April) then on the market in September.

Serving recommendations

The pallet shows a slight bitter aftertaste (bitter almond), typical of Dolcetto from these areas. The color is a very lively purple. Dolcetto is the wine for the “everyday table” that has best been able to take root in the heart of Piedmont. It has a great flexibility with the complex cuisine of our region, from appetizer to desserts. It can keep well for several years although we recommend it be drunk at a younger age.
