Description:
A truly unique Dolcetto d’Alba. Its grapes come from a century-old vineyard that was saved from the phylloxera disease thanks to the partially sandy soil and particular microclimate. In the glass, this Dolcetto Boschi di Berri presents a magnificent, intense ruby-red colour with reflections which vary between fuchsia and violet. The bouquet recalls violets and raspberries and is quite intense and persistent. The warm and nearly velvety taste offers enjoyable sensations of ripe cherries and currants. (12 x 75 cl)

Pio Cesare Dolcetto d'Alba DOC Piemonte
Description: Our Dolcetto has an intense ruby red colour with glossy purple hues. The bouquet is intense, distinct and delicately grapey, with a hint of raspberry and pepper. The palate is dry, supple and lively, with red currant and blueberry overtones. Our Dolcetto fully expresses the typical characteristics of this variety: fresh, fruity, supple and exciting. It is a wine that is easy to approach and easy to drink, evoking the emotion of ripe grapes and the joy of spring, yet supported by a fully body. The Dolcetto grapes are grown in selected vineyards around the village of Treiso, Monforte d'Alba, Serralunga and Madonna Como. The exact timing of the harvest is extremely important for all young wines, and Dolcetto is no exception. The goal is maximum ripeness, but not over-ripeness, which would cause the grapes to lose their freshness and liveliness. Only the best bunches are selected so as not to mar the fruitiness and delicate youth of the wine. Generally, the harvest occurs in the last week of September. The grapes are soft-pressed, and fermented under strict temperature-controlled conditions for 6 to 8 days. We typically bottle during the first days of March. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £74.71
