Other vintages
A traditional wine, easy to drink, which comes from a blend of Dolcetto grapes from the vineyards of the Einaudi estates which surround Dogliani. In particolar in the vineyards positioned in the hills of San Luigi, San Giacomo and Madonna delle Grazie. In the Dogliani area this traditional wine reaches its maximal tipicity: of a ruby red colour, which tends toward violet with a rich fruity bouquet, full bodied with an intense aroma of undergrowth and a pleasantly tannic taste, with a slight final almond note, typical of this wine. Eight months of maturation in steel tanks and two months in glass complete the refinement. Of a dry and moderately acidic taste, after a year of ageing, it has a good body and full taste.

The 2017 Dogliani is a powerful, dense wine that captures all the intensity that is typical of Dolcettos from the town of Dogliani. Inky dark fruit spice, licorice and menthol build into the unctuous, flamboyant finish. This is a terrific entry-level wine from Einaudi.
