Dolcetto d'Alba

Medium

Cork

Besides the estate’s Monvigliero, Burlotto’s Dolcetto is the only other wine that consistently sees whole-bunch fermentation – anywhere from 40 to 60%. Fabio believes this preserves fragrance, fruit and freshness while building a bit of structure. It has striking elements similar to the estate's Pelaverga, with a peppery spiciness as well as cherry and red liquorice. Pillowy fruit is framed by soft, fine tannins, and violet notes linger on the finish.
