Dezzani ‘Otto Bucce’ Piemonte DOC Rosso 2017: Medium-bodied. Soft tannins. Low acidity. Tasting notes of strawberry, cherry, plum, vanilla, spice & oak. Medium dry finish. For me, this was an interesting wine as the label translates to “8 skins” hence blended from eight different grapes: Dolcetto 60%, Barbera 21%, Bonarda 5%, Merlot 5%, Cabernet Sauvignon 4%, Freisa 3%, Albarossa 1% & Syrah 1%. All in all, it works and comes together rather nicely. It’s complex, fruity & surprisingly well done. Great find! Great value! Cheers🍷 — 10 months ago

Interesting, it shows like a Cahors with a lovely violet purple nose and rustic tannin on the palate. It will be interesting to see what age delivers. — 4 months ago

Had with spiced roast chicken with chimichurri. Food brings out a roasted red pepper/ paprika note in the wine. Chimichurri brings out a tart side to the fruit and plays up the bramble. — 3 months ago
