Roagna
Dolcetto d'Alba
Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Always competent if not very good-this had less of that cozy mouthfeel from past vintages & has a more pointed, nebbiolo style attack(ie acidic).

Fresh, funk, juicy and bitter on the palate. Great value. BTG at Pizzi starting this week.

Impromptu date night at Maialino was a delight. As was this very this delicious and approachable Dolcetto from Roagna. Fair dark in profile with ripe cherries and a touch of spice. Elegantly textured, medium bodied. Went beautifully with the carbonara.

Maybe an off bottle, but this didn't quite come together, even after being open a few days.

Excellent wine. Excellent producer. This is a steal; they should charge way more for this.
