"The dark and deep crimson color with violet splashes of light make you wonder if this is a “fruit forward, enjoy in its youth wine”! But a swirl produces a fruit bouquet of sour cherries and plums and then a remembrance of a raspberry chocolate torte. Spicy notes of pepper, cloves and star anise meld with cherry compote – but we digress! After all, this is a wine to drink! That first taste reinforces the notion of the youthful freshness of Dolcetto, with more dark fruits mingling with baker’s cocoa and the typical Dolcetto cherry almond finish. The 2007 Dolcetto is more complex than previous vintages. It still boasts the fruit profile and bright acidity, but also layers in long tannins for a richer textural component. Enjoy with your “fun” recipes, or take to a potluck where it will shine. During the summer months, we also enjoy Dolcetto slightly chilled for a fresh, taste sensation!"
