    • Press quotes
    … lively and charming, with tangy dark fruit and floral, almost earthy hints on the finish. (2007 vintage) Simon Woods, Wine & Spirit, 1 August 2008
    Dolcetto is the most immediate of the red grapes grown in the north-west of Italy. This one is perfumed and deeply coloured with masses of plum and black cherry fruit, and smooth tannins. (2007 vintage) Tim Atkin, Woman and Home, 1 October 2008
    This is a pure unoaked dolcetto from the hills of the Langhe area of Italy’s north-western region of Piemonte, whose mulberry fruity quality is just the foil for pasta and grills. (2007 vintage) Anthony Rose, The Independent, 7 February
