Vigna Scot Dolcetto d'Alba

Violet, red plum, blueberry. Zippy acidity, a touch of tannins.

Quite dark in color and on the slighly viscous side; red and blue fruit on the nose with liquorice, cow stable scents, and sweet candy notes; medium alcohol (feels higher than the 12.5%), and acids, cherries and blueberries, and a nutty medium-long finish. Well made and true to the saying that Dolcettos are the Italian Beaujolais (which I usually don’t agree with).

Primary medium intense, youthful aromas. Red fresh fruit, very inviting, cherries, strawberries, mint, dried herbs and a crushed Stone minerality.
Dry palate, medium tannins that takes a first grip but wears of through the entry phase, medium acidity, medium alcohol and equal flavour intensity, red fruit, herbs and rocks. Medium lenght finish
Drinks well but Will age 5 years.

Dolcetto to swoon over

Italian bistro wine. I would say trattoria wine, but I think bistro wine has a better connotation. Makes any dinner a more pleasant experience.

Bryant had this 7 years ago

Wtf. Wtf. This wine is stupid delicious. Drunk over a period of 6 months (thank you coravin) but tonight, with pizza pie, in America. Just makes me wanna say boobs. Don't know why.

Reminds me of Italy. That means it's doing its job. This is what you drink when you wish Barolo was cheaper.

A little tight, but good sour cherry/plum complexity evident

Best dolcetto ever
