Stop digging in Dolcetto folks. This was loaded with tart black fruits and got more expressive with air until it was gone.

Good fruit forward but decidedly Italian. Dry finish. Slight earth.

I’d certainly buy another glass or even a bottle. Found it was best to let it sit for a bit before drinking which seemed to be the case with a lot of the Barolo and Barbaresco we had in Piedmont. Thought it had black cherry and fruity flavors with a bit of a spice or tart taste upfront.

A bit fruity at the start with a dry finish. Lighter body, fair amount of tannins. Excellent QPR at $11.

Light, flavors of raspberry and plum, bit of spice on finish.
