Sori dij But Dogliani Dolcetto

Abbona is making some of the most fresh and vibrant Dolcetto in all of Piedmont. Even this entry level bottling shows lovely purity, elegance and character. Delicate floral nose, bright red fruits on the entry and a very silky but structured mid palate. Subtle smoky minerality lends a certain complexity. I have been consistently enamored of these wines which deliver incredible value.

Lean stone, almost smoke.

Black & blue fruits. Plenty of sap, richness and huge concentration. Appropriately tannic. Fantastic Dogliani. #annamariaabbona #dolcetto #dogliani

Vibrant red Dolcetto with great legs. Red cherry and plum. Mild satisfying tannins and balanced acidity. Great with grilled rib eyes and mushrooms.

Sori' is Piedmontese dialect for the sunny south face of a hill. 'But' or Butti is the name of the hamlet where Anna Maria and her husband Franco's house and cellar is located. I wish I could have this as my "table" wine. This Dolcetto is red with purple edges, light acidity notes of fresh blueberries. Brought back memories of my Nono's rustic wine.

Easy red.

Light cherry, blueberry. Balanced tannins. Earth.

Rich. Lovely. Gulpable.
