Dolcetto d'Alba 2025

The Dolcetto d'Alba DOC from Cascina Fontana (Panzano in Castiglione Falletto, passionately guided by Mario Fontana in the traditional way) is the quintessence of the sincerity and rustic vitality of the Langhe. Long recognized as the authentic "everyday" wine that is indispensable on Piedmontese tables, this dry red, bright and deeply territorial, captures the convivial spirit that marks the culmination of the hard work of the harvest. Particularly emblematic is Cascina Fontana's connection with the autumn tradition of drinking Dolcetto, freshly pressed, with the classic bagna cauda, at which point the wine reveals its full, overwhelming fruity fragrance.

In the cellar, winemaking follows principles of extreme purity and respect for the raw material: spontaneous fermentation and aging conducted exclusively in stainless steel tanks until the summer following the harvest, when the wine is bottled in a single batch. Cascina Fontana's Dolcetto d'Alba reveals itself as a crisp red, with a winey character, distinguished by an intense color, a fresh acidic vein, and a youthful, balanced tannic structure. Designed to be enjoyed in its fragrant youth, it also has the substance to evolve harmoniously for up to 4–5 years from the harvest.
