The berries for this 2022 Dolcetto D'Alba DOC come from a plot of the Bricco Monguglielmo vineyard, which is located directly below the Conterno winery in Monforte d'Alba.
The grapes are hand-picked in September and after pressing and destemming, fermentation begins spontaneously with native yeasts in a temperature-controlled stainless steel container. The expansion in both the stainless steel tank and the cement tank takes six months. After a short period of bottle storage, the Dolcetto is then put on sale.

On the palate it appears fresh and structured with well-balanced tannins and alcohol. The aftertaste is medium long with a slight almond note. Drinking window: 2023-2026
