Langhe Dolcetto 2025
The Langhe Dolcetto by Maffrei stands as a sincere tribute to what has historically been the most cherished and essential everyday grape variety on Piedmontese winemakers' tables. The Maffrei winery interprets this traditional variety through a stylistic lens focused entirely on fruit purity, freshness, and effortless drinkability, steering completely clear of over-extraction or heaviness. This 100% Dolcetto is sourced from carefully tended hillside vineyards shaped by the region's classic limestone-clay marls, which grant the wine beautiful aromatic definition and innate elegance.
In the cellar, Maffrei’s low-intervention philosophy aims to preserve the grape's primary aromas. Vinification takes place strictly in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, featuring a short-to-medium skin maceration perfectly tailored to extract its vibrant color and signature tannins while safeguarding the natural smoothness of the palate. The wine ages exclusively in stainless steel for a few months before bottling—a precise choice to deliver a crisp, dynamic red that remains deeply faithful to the true varietal identity of Dolcetto.
