Orlando Abrigo Dolcetto d'Alba

Orlando Abrigo Dolcetto d'Alba is a charming and authentic expression of Dolcetto — one of Piedmont's most beloved and food-friendly native red grape varieties — from the esteemed Abrigo family winery in the Langhe hills of Alba. Dolcetto (meaning 'little sweet one') produces wines of vivid color, low acidity, and characteristically soft tannins, making it one of the most approachable and immediately enjoyable of Italy's red wines. This Dolcetto d'Alba presents a beautiful deep ruby-violet color with fresh aromas of ripe cherry, blackberry, licorice, and almonds. On the palate, it is smooth and round with juicy dark fruit flavors, gentle bitterness on the finish characteristic of the variety, and an overall fresh, vibrant character. Excellent with antipasto, pizza, pasta with meat sauces, and charcuterie.
