For many years Dolcetto was an almost forgotten wine. Not by the people of Langhe, mind you, but by the supposed experts/enthusiasts. After all, it was not easy for this pleasant but not complex wine to emerge in the regional panorama dominated by two sacred giants onsters of oenology such as Barbera and Nebbiolo. And yet today Dolcetto, thanks also to the commitment of small, high-quality producers, seems to be finally succeeding in emerging and finding its own large group of admirers. A fine example of a pure Dolcetto is this Langhe Doc, characterized by a brilliant red colour of medium intensity with faint violet reflections. On the nose, the characteristic aromas of red fruits, such as blackberries and berries, stand out. The mouthfeel is well balanced and elegant. Pleasantly fruity and rightly tannic. The finish recalls almonds, a typical trait of the vine.
We are in the heart of the Langhe, one of the most popular areas for wine lovers from all over the world. More precisely, we are in Perletto, a small village on the right bank of the Bormida River, north of Cortemilia. Just about thirty kilometres from Alba, Acqui Terme and Cairo Montenotte. The Roccasanta estate is located here. A family business, of course, which has been making wine since 2006, although it has owned the Vigne since 1995. They preferred to wait until they were really ready and so, before dedicating themselves to production, they invested more than 10 years in renewing the plants and changing the vines grown. Today, however, the small company is a real gem, capable of producing excellent wines, vintage after vintage, deeply linked to their territory of origin. Merit of the soils, of the correct exposures, and above all of the deep respect for the raw material shown by the family in every process.
