Bruno Giacosa Dolcetto d'Alba 2018
Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, ItalySeamless, as is expected from Giacosa. From select vineyards in the villages of Neive, Neviglie, Treiso and Alba, this youthful red was fermented and aged in stainless for 7 months. Finesse from the start, this opens with scented red florals, cherry, red currants, wrapped around a salted plum / cherry core, and finishing with a kiss of mineral salts and kirsch. Tannins are whisper fine, barely outing the perimeter of this medium-bodied red. There's a lightness and effortless here which makes drinking now easy. That said, the articulation of this wine means it will happily cellar over the next couple of years. Amazing value.Tasted: 07 November 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $38.95 | 750ml | consignment |
