Love the cherry fruit notes. Not too tannic and very smooth.

Super delicious and super bright. The type of wine you smash with a pasta in the time the pasta remains in your plate. You could write notes if you want but it's definitely not what this was made for.

Bought before Asimov’s latest article but I agree this is an excellent value Dolcetto. Loads of cherry, some earth, just enough tannin, great acid. Enjoyable.

Nice young Dolcetto. Bright, flinty tannins, wet steel. Good with lentil soup, waiting for the blizzard. From Flatiron Wines. 12/16/20
