[SOLD-OUT] Massolino Dolcetto d'Alba 2018

FROM ONE OF THE GREAT PIEDMONTE FAMILIES, MASSOLINO MAKE A FRESH, SOFTLY FRAMED AND HIGHLY DRINKABLE DOLCETTO!
  

"Average age of vines: 20-25 years. First year of production was 1896; as of the 2003 vintage the best Dolcetto grapes from all our vineyards are all used to make this wine. The soils of Serralunga convey exceptional structure to this grape, which offers characteristic freshness and fragrance." - Massolino

"Massolino's little sweet one has a wonderfully flowing texture for this variety. It's bright and juicy, with flavours of Satsuma plum and red and black cherry, as well as aromatic violet bouncing around the palate. It's long and refreshing with a chalky acidity, in the best Dolcetto manner." - Bibendum

"One of the most distinctive wines in this range, the 2018 Dolcetto d'Alba is a powerful wine that really shows the grip and intensity of Serralunga in its structural feel. Smoke, iron, incense, dark spice, menthol and licorice add character to a rich, flavorful Dolcetto that will shine at the dinner table. The Dolcetto is often a standout at Massolino, as it is again in 2018." - Antonio Galloni
