"A bright ruby/magenta hue, the 2023 Dolcetto D'Alba is refreshing on the nose with pretty, pristine fruit aromas of fresh flowers, mixed berries, raspberries, and wet stones. It has a refined and very elegant texture, with fine tannins and a clean, refreshing feel throughout. A lovely Dolcetto with a clean, medium-bodied feel and a great finish, it's a highly versatile wine to enjoy all year round. Drink now or over the next couple years to capture it at its peak."

"Pink/magenta-colored, the 2022 Dolcetto D'Alba is lovely and fruity, with wonderful freshness in its notes of fresh blueberries, red berries, fresh flowers, and sweet herbs. Light on its feet, it has a silky texture and a fresh snap of acidity. It's fantastic for its versatility and wide-ranging appeal. Drink 2024-2029."
