I’m a huge fan of this. It’s exactly what a domestically-grown/made Italian varietal should be.

Macerated plums, juicy black fruits, orange peel, clove, spring flowers. Bright juicy fruits backed by solid tannin structure

Sure doesn't taste like Dolcetto from the motherland, but ignoring that it's s beautifully dusty and earthy with pitch perfect acidity.

Bright red fruit, good acidity; went down well with roasted delicata squash and Gruyere-garlic sausage.

Very light not as full bodied as I'm used to for a dolcetto but very balanced. It has that great tannin velcro on the finish.
