Why You'll Love It
A Dolcetto that's all about pleasure rather than pomp: juicy black cherry, vivid florals and gentle tannins. It's light on its feet, but has enough substance for charcuterie or pasta. Lovely slightly chilled.
About The Producer
Giuseppe Cortese is a benchmark family estate in Barbaresco, founded in 1971 when Giuseppe began bottling the Nebbiolo grown by generations of his family in the celebrated Rabajà vineyard. The cellar stands directly above Rabajà, with other parcels on the neighbouring Trifolera slopes. Pier Carlo Cortese oversees winemaking, favouring spontaneous fermentation, restrained extraction and large, seasoned Slavonian oak rather than conspicuous new wood. Gabriele represents the estate internationally and Tiziana leads hospitality. The result is precise, traditionally made Piedmont wine whose perfume, freshness and sense of place have earned a devoted following.
Winemaking Information
100% Dolcetto from 1.2 hectares of west-facing vineyards in Barbaresco at 200–330m, on limestone and clay soils. Hand harvested from vines around 35 years old; vinified and held entirely in stainless steel to preserve fruit and freshness. Bottled and aged for approximately three months before release. Vintage-specific 2024 ABV of 12% is independently recorded.
