Lighter delicate reds lose thunder to bolder more sumptuous wines, but this dolcetto is prune and cranberry on the nose which starts singing after each taste. A perfect compliment to chicken and rich and memorable after the last bite.

Love it. Everything working together just the way it’s supposed to. Had with salumi and baked Brie.
