Dolcetto d'Alba Bricco Lago 2024

This Dolcetto d'Alba is a "back to the future" moment for Luca Currado. The project originates in San Sebastiano, Monforte d’Alba, from three historic plots with vines aged between 40 and 50 years. The soul of this wine lies in its unique winemaking: Luca has revisited an experiment from 1988, employing 100% whole-cluster fermentation. This bold choice, combined with spontaneous fermentation using indigenous yeasts and gentle foot-treading, redefines Dolcetto through the lens of extreme finesse and drinkability.

Aged in cement tanks, the wine displays a ruby red hue with violet highlights and a fragrant bouquet of wild berries and cherries. The palate is a revelation: slender, elegant, and velvety, featuring subtle tannins that support a natural and persistent flow. This is a Dolcetto that breaks the mold—perfect for those seeking a red with profound heritage but an aristocratic lightness.
