I'm surprised this wine has only 3.9 stars. This is a beautiful dolcetto, fluid, fruity, easy drinking but with tons of complexity. Great value

Nose has overripe cherries, cooked mushrooms. Smooth and slightly earthy -- very approachable, Jen is less of a fan than her husband.

Not very familiar with this grape, but it’s quite a light and straightforward wine. Lots of red fruit and herbs in the bouquet. On the palate

Description

This red wine stands out for its vibrant and well-defined profile. On the palate, flavors of blackberry and ripe plum predominate, accompanied by elegant mineral nuances reminiscent of graphite. Its firm, chalky tannins provide structure and lead to a fresh, long, and persistent finish.

Roagna Dolcetto d'Alba is an elegant, dry red wine made entirely from Dolcetto grapes, sourced from the prestigious Dolcetto d'Alba DOC region in the heart of Piedmont, Italy. Created by the historic Roagna winery, renowned for its commitment to traditional winemaking practices and faithful expression of terroir, this wine embodies the authenticity and character of the area.

The grapes come from vines over fifty years old, capable of producing fruit of great concentration and complexity. The winemaking process follows a traditional method, with maceration for up to 100 days using the submerged cap technique, which allows for a slow and precise extraction of aromas, color, and structure.

After fermentation, the wine is aged for a year in wooden and concrete tanks, where it develops balance, depth and a marked varietal identity without losing the characteristic freshness of the Dolcetto. Roagna Dolcetto d'Alba 2024 is an excellent choice for those who want to buy wine online and discover the secret of a Dolcetto made with old vines and a faithful interpretation of the Piedmont tradition.
