WineSaint

Brooding and substantial, with blackberry, tar and earthy spice building layers of complexity. The Augenta vineyard and barrel treatment elevate this beyond typical Dolcetto, delivering impressive weight and mineral backbone. Shows the variety's serious potential when given proper attention. Drink 2020-2024.
