@Chris MacLean not sure this is exactly the same label you had with @Sarah Bignami
I did sourced it from callmewine and i am happy enough though
What fascinated me was the corrispondence with the territorial elements so common in the surrounding
I found raspberries and wild apples, licorice, elderflower and fennel seeds and these are all parfumes you meet in the area
The tannin was lean and there is a nice mineral too.
Fairly long and enjoyable
It needed time to open up
Definitely worth the money
😊🍷🙏
Thanks @Chris MacLean and @Sarah Bignami

Thanks to @Chris MacLean for flagging the NYT article on dolcetto’s by Eric Asimov. This was his pick. Vicki and I both could possibly see what he saw. It was perhaps more focused and elegant than the more abundant San Fereolo. I would like them equally, and pair them slightly differently. I’m grateful for the steer toward dolcetto right now, and discovering examples I really love. — 6 years ago
@Chris MacLean you would like this wine. Like a Greek version of barbera good acidity and well structured — 8 years ago

Got talked into opening this by @Chris MacLean per usual. Always a pleasure to drink conterno. — 9 years ago
Thanks @Chris MacLean the birth year wine. Still some gas left in this tank. One of the most interesting wines I've had, devoid of oak and still somewhat structured with good acid. And it was not too plummy. Just right. — 9 years ago


Wife would not let me pour this on her cheesecake @Chris MacLean so I had to drink all of it. Wow. — 3 years ago

Recommended by @Chris MacLean and @Gianluct Torellix Thanks guys! This turned my dolcetto frown upside down. Elegant and expressive. Got it from MacArthur after cmac’s email. — 6 years ago
See @Chris MacLean accurate note when you click on the wine. I’m too bias to be objective. — 8 years ago

Also from @Chris MacLean like the other burgundies of the evening. Very nice but in the shadow of the puligny Montrachet. — 9 years ago
The best expression of dolcetto I’ve had. It was even better on the third day. Thanks @Chris MacLean ! — 3 years ago

A little funk goes a long way in this país. Closest thing I've had to Lopez Heredia, just short of the real thing. Of interest @Chris MacLean — 10 years ago
