The 2024 Prunotto Dolcetto d’Alba DOC is a vibrant and approachable red from Piedmont, crafted by the renowned Prunotto estate (Antinori family) using 100% Dolcetto. Made primarily in stainless steel with minimal aging, it highlights freshness, purity and immediate drinkability. The nose is bright and inviting, showing red cherry, plum and raspberry, layered with floral notes and a touch of spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with soft tannins and moderate acidity, delivering a juicy core of red and dark fruit with a smooth, balanced texture. The finish is fresh, clean and slightly almondy, typical of Dolcetto, making it easy and enjoyable to drink.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a perfect everyday Italian red—fresh, fruit-driven and highly food-friendly. It’s ideal for customers looking for a lighter, easy-drinking alternative to Barbera. Drink now or over the next 3–5 years. Perfect with pasta, pizza, grilled meats or casual meals.
