    Giacosa grows Dolcetto on the Falletto – that cru in Serralunga d'Alba which seems made for Nebbiolo and for wines that take decades to develop. No other estate in Piedmont would do this so matter-of-factly. The monopoly in Serralunga, supplemented by plots in Lirano di Sinio, provides the Dolcetto with soils otherwise reserved for Barolo – rich in limestone, structurally robust, with a minerality that has characterised this site for generations. The vinification is restrained: 8 to 10 days’ maceration in wood, full malolactic fermentation, then 6 months in steel, one month in bottle. The south-western and western exposure, the soils of Serralunga – all of this shapes the character without anyone needing to intervene.

    A bright ruby red with violet hues. The bouquet offers wild blackberries, black cherries, dark flowers, earth and a cool, steely undertone. On the palate, it is darker, more structured and more tannic than any other Dolcetto – with firm, grippy tannins and a long, mineral, cool final. The Dolcetto from Barolo vineyards. No paradox – a conviction. SUPERIORE.DE
