Ferdinando Principiano Dolcetto d’Alba 2022

Dolcetto d’Alba is a red wine produced by Ferdinando Principiano in Monforte d’Alba, in the Langhe. The Dolcetto grapes come from 40-year-old vineyards, ferment spontaneously with indigenous yeasts in steel and maceration for a few days. The refinement always takes place in steel for 10 months, before being bottled without additives, filtrations or clarifications. Hints of blueberry and violet on the nose, fresh and savory in the mouth, ideal to accompany baked rabbit

Ferdinando Principiano was born and raised among the family vineyards, at just 45 years old he already has over 25 harvests under his belt and enormous experience: as a former modernist of Barolo, he is today one of the most solid for reasoned viticulture in the Langa.

In his eyes we saw the Cavese spirit clearly reflected, the entire range of wines is a succession of shots to the heart: from the bubbles with the SoloUva Method to the Timorasso grown in Alta Langa and then arriving at all the classic reds of the Langhe, treated with equal dignity from Dolcetto to Barolo.
