About this product
From 50-year-old Dolcetto vines on the Vergne hillsides above Barolo, this wine shows the variety's most appealing characteristics with the transparency of a careful Langhe producer. Deep purple-black with aromas of black cherry, liquorice, bitter chocolate, and violet. The palate is silky-textured with characteristically low acidity, plush fruit, and a bitter-almond finish that echoes both the soil and the grape.

Dolcetto's low acidity and silky tannins are ideal with this Piedmontese summer classic — the wine's soft fruit doesn't overpower the delicate tuna-mayonnaise preparation

complement
Bagna cauda — Piedmont's communal anchovy and garlic dip — with Dolcetto is a regional tradition: the wine's bitterness cuts through the anchovy intensity
