Description

The 2023 Monterustico Dogliani Dolcetto is a vibrant and authentic expression of Dolcetto from the Dogliani zone in Piedmont, an area widely regarded as one of the variety's finest homes. Richly aromatic, it offers notes of blackberry, plum, black cherry and violets, complemented by subtle hints of spice and almond.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied and beautifully balanced, with juicy dark fruit flavours supported by soft tannins and refreshing acidity. The texture is smooth and approachable, while a gentle savoury character adds complexity through to a dry, fruit-driven finish.

Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic everyday Piedmont red that showcases the freshness and charm of Dolcetto. Best enjoyed over the next 3–5 years while its vibrant fruit remains at its peak. Pairs beautifully with pizza, pasta dishes, charcuterie, roast chicken, grilled sausages and antipasto.

About the region

Piedmont · Dogliani

Piedmont, or Piemonte, sits in Italy's north-west under the Alps. Its great grape is Nebbiolo, which ripens late, is often picked in autumn fog, and reaches its fullest expression in the Langhe hills at Barolo and Barbaresco. Those wines are pale and firmly tannic when young, and turn to tar, dried rose and truffle with age. Alongside them Barbera and Dolcetto supply the everyday reds, and Moscato d'Asti the sweet, lightly sparkling whites.
