Stumbling on a Dolcetto from Fenocchio is like finding a discarded sketch from DaVinci. Took a while to open up but gave hints of dark fruits. Relatively dry (despite the name) with grippy tannins. With weeknight shish taouk.

Smooth and adaptable even as young as it is. Open and drink, preferably paired with pizza or pasta!

Strawberries/Cherries and firm tannins.
Healthy dose of Italian acidity.
A darker, drier expression.
Protein brings out the juice.

Earthy, woody, a little tar, pepper, mellow tannins and with some good acid bite; but, maybe not as bright as other Dolcetto. From Shawn's.
