Mar 14th, 2023I may be biased (I now sell this wine) but this is one of the best dolcetto examples on the market. Great with steak last night and versatile enough for pizza or antipasti.

Jun 28th, 2022One of the better dolcettos I’ve tried. Inky and full bodied, balanced by good acidity. Still going strong on night 3.
