Designation: Dogliani D.O.C.G. Variety: 100% dolcetto First vintage produced: 1994 Harvest time: second / third week of September. Vinification: from grapes coming from vineyards surrounding the Dogliani winery. The territory is part of the San Luigi mention from where the name of the wine originates. The vines are cultivated with guyot and have a density of 5000 plants per Ha. The wine is the product of several vineyards with south-east, south and south-west exposures. The soil is calcareous-clayey. After pressing, the must ferments in steel tanks for 10-12 days at a temperature of 26°C. After a first racking the malolactic fermentation develops naturally. Ageing: only in steel tanks. Description: red-purple colour with violet nuances. Characterised by aromas of blackberries, raspberries, blueberries and red cherries. Mineral notes. Medium body, soft tannins, moderate acidity and good balance. The area of Dogliani is especially suited to the cultivation of the Dolcetto grape, whose presence here is documented in a manuscript from 1432, discovered in the municipal archives. 70% of the estate's vineyards are dedicated to Dolcetto. Dogliani is known for its much riper, bigger style of Dolcetto. In general it is characterized by a deep purple color and intensely aromatic bouquet, displaying black raspberry, violets, coffee and dark, bitter chocolate notes.Deeply fragrant and scented with red fruits and blossom, with pleasantly dusty, dry tannins, this is a wine that gently envelops you, with no sharp edges or brashness. Food Parings: appetizers, pizza, pasta, grilled red and white meats, fresh cheeses.
