Deep and beautiful garnet color. Sticky and density.
First scent: raspberry, gooseberry, mulberry, and other wild berries.
Second note: ink, pencils, iron, flint and match.
Mid aroma: red lily, aromatic flowers, violet cabbage, boiled eggs, bacon, pickles, and herbs.

Attack: less sweetness, vibrant acid.
Mid palate: rich fruitiness and good tannin.
Finish: long and good acid with cleanliness.

Criminally inexpensive for this well made 'natural' wine. Bulletproof, dense, bright, fruit, soil, and a freshness w/o carbo, I'm still stunned at the price. Bravo!!

Part of Italian wine tasting night. I don’t have much experience drinking Dosset but this one makes me want to drink more. Low ABV natural goodness. Wild notes of strawberry shisha in the best way.

Lovely, light, really good acidity but interesting underneath.

really light, not a lot of depth, but totally fine for casual guzzling or with food.

Wild berried nose, garnet color, serious wine at a very low alcohol.
