Dolcetto d'Alba Vigna Scot 2024
Dolcetto d’Alba Vigna Scot demonstrates how this variety can reach heights of great elegance when cultivated in exceptional terroir. The vineyard enjoys an enviable position, nestled on the hill between the renowned crus of Bricco Boschis and Monprivato. Here, the Cavallotto family applies the same meticulous care reserved for their great Barolos, aiming for a wine that blends immediate fruitiness with superior structure.
In the cellar, fermentation is carried out with natural yeasts and a brief 3-4 day maceration. To prioritize freshness, the wine never sees oak; instead, it ages for 6–8 months in cement tanks. This technical choice preserves the aromatic purity of cherry and delicate floral hints. The result is a smooth yet vibrant Dolcetto, perfect for everyday enjoyment but possessing a surprising aging potential. It is an ideal companion for traditional appetizers, pasta dishes, white meats, and even gourmet pizzas.
