Marchesi di Barolo Dolcetto D’Alba Madonna del Dono

Region:
Piedmont

Grape:
Dolcetto

Tasting notes:
The grapes are collected exclusively by hand and quickly taken to the cellar where they are destemmed and softly crushed. Fermentation takes place in thermo conditioned tanks at 28 30° C Maceration lasts for about 4 days and, before the wine is completely dry, it is racked and slowly completes its fermentation at a low temperature, so that its fruity notes are enhanced.
The peculiar soil composition and the temperature controlled fermentation enhance the typical characteristics of the Dolcetto d’Alba grape variety, which, by nature, yields a ruby red wine with intense purple hues The bouquet is fresh, fragrant and fruity, with a clear, immediately recognizable Morello cherry scent. The taste is dry and harmonious, due to the low acidity.
