Piedmont, ItalyFrom the 5th generation of Chionetti growers, this organic dolcetto comes off San Luigi Vineyard, at 400m. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Crushed florals, wild raspberry and fragrant plum teem through the textural palate, streaked with scrubby resinous herbs and framed with sticky, plumped tannins. There's a lovely mineral stoniness threaded throughout this medium wine, drawing you to a saline finish. Quite smart, and well suited to grilled sausages / wild mushroom pasta.Tasted: 28 April 2024Tasted by: Prices:

Piedmont, ItalyThis organic dolcetto comes from fifth-generation growers in Dogliani. The fruit comes off San Luigi Vineyard, which sits at 400m elevation. We loved the 2020 vintage, and the new 2022 vintage could be even better. There's a fantastic purity to the black cherry and dark plum, which is lifted by enticing lavender aromatics. Fantastic value and a sneaky cellar candidate, too, with structured, fine-grained tannins that are well balanced by a juicy freshness.Tasted: 21 November 2023Tasted by: Prices:

Piedmont, ItalyThis Dogliani DOCG red, crafted solely from Dolcetto, is packed with bright, vibrant red berries and florals, mingled with licorice and stoney, flinty minerality. On the palate, the tartness of the fruit is accentuated by taut acidity and youthful tannins. While showing excellent value, the potential for improvement lies in further integration of acidity and tannins. A promising wine with a bright future ahead.Tasted: 17 December 2023Tasted by: Prices:
