Domenico Clerico Dolcetto ‘Visadi’ 2023

Dolcetto | Piedmont, Monforte d'Alba

A ripping juicy, beautifully developed Dolcetto with fine acid. Playful with slatey mid-palate grip. Grape spice, red to blue fruit. Solid depth and length. Effortless and thirst quenching. Beautifully weighted. Excellent transparency. Lovely perfume.The careless approach many makers take to Dolcetto is a real bugbear of mine. It has been said by more than one great maker that you should taste Dolcetto to rate the standing of a producer. The worst offenders are too ripe, over-extracted,

Vineyards lie in Monforte, in an area with particularly great natural biodiversity. Elena and Luca strongly believe in Dolcetto as an important “tool” for young wine drinkers and their entry level exposure to the Langhe. The grapes are vinified whole cluster and aging takes place in stainless steel for this fragrant rendition of Dolcetto.

The Dolcetto grapes we produce come from our own vineyards, where we find soils typical of the Helvetian region (ancient in origin, calcareous-clayey with shades of pale gray and pink. Alternating layers also include siliceous sandstone, calcium carbonate, and iron). The color is intense ruby red with purple highlights. The persistent floral and fruity aromas of sweet violets and small red fruits give it a pleasant immediacy. Its moderate tannins and balanced, elegant structure make it the quint

Fratelli Alessandria Langhe Nebbiolo 'Prinsiòt' 2021
Verduno Fruit
Trying Langhe Neb's made with fruit from just one Commune is a great way to dial into the characteristics of that Commune The 2021 makes it 4 years in a row that this wine has performed well above its standing. The consistency Fratelli Alessandria are achieving here is impressive. All of the great Verduno makers speak of the perfume and spice that are the hallmark of the Commune. Both are here in spades. Plush, ultra-fine tannins are beautifully weighted against hyper-vital red and blue fruits a

Finally got my laughing gear around this (Aug 2024). Classic structured Monforte! A day of air brings out the perfume and harmonises and softens the tannins. A classic tar and roses profile lifts from the glass with sour cherry and blood playing around red and blue fruits with baking spice and a cleansing sappiness. The elegance and transparency of the fruit profile is dominated by some serious tannin of very high quality so typical of Monforte. It will take time to resolve full, when it does th

Margherita Otto Langhe Nebbiolo 2019

Nebbiolo | Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo

2019 is the first vintage of Langhe Nebbiolo to be produced. It is made from a small part of vines registered as Nebbiolo Langhe in the Vignane MGA (in Barolo, next to Castellero) as well as some declassified fruit from the Barolo parcels. In 2019, the Nebbiolo was fermented on skins for about 10 days before being racked to preserve fruit and freshness. It went through malo in steel and was transferred to a single 1000L Mittelberger botti for aging. This is super fresh and aromatic with Baro

Giuseppe Rinaldi Rosae 2020

Ruché | Piedmont, Barolo

About Guiseppe Rinaldi Rinaldi is one of the cult producers of Barolo. There’s been plenty written about him which I won’t regurgitate here other than to say, he clearly had a single-minded focus on quality. Beppe, sat in the more traditional camp of producers, and, like Bartolo Mascarello and Maria-Teresa, Beppe Rinaldi was an advocate […]

Giuseppe Rinaldi Rosae 2021

Ruché | Piedmont, Barolo

Well here's a fascinating drink! I've not had a Ruchè AKA Ruchet AKA Rouchet AKA Moscatellina before. I wonder how Rinaldi ended up with this in the mix and the history of the vineyard.The synonym Moscatellina is perhaps the one that first drew my gaze when smelling this. It does have some Muscat like aromas, I almost felt like I was smelling a pretty decent bitters. Galloni is on the mark with his discription. Before trying it myself I though perhaps he was having a Rinaldi Fan Boy moment.
Bold primary tones of plump cherry and blackberry are delivered to the bouquet of the 2021 Dolcetto d'Alba Vigna Santo Stefano di Perno. This wine is all about freshness, fruitiness and richness. Mauro Mascarello says the 2022 vintage had less volume overall. Production is always lowered in the hottest drought years because the grapes tend to slow down. But 2021 was a quality year for Dolcetto, he says, both in terms of quality and quantity.Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate 92 PointsH
