Roagna 2012 Dolcetto d'Alba 750ml

The 2012 Dolcetto d'Alba opens with beguiling, sweet perfumed red berries, rose petals and leather, all in a voluptuous, textured style that is impossible to resist. A long maceration on the skins of 30 days, plus approximately a year in cask give Roagna's Dolcetto a level of tertiary complexity that is rare for this indigenous red grape. Ultimately, Roagna's Dolcetto is really a wine of the Langhe above all else. The Dolcetto is made from grapes in Pajé and Faset.
