Giuseppe Cortese Langhe Dolcetto 750 ML

This wine is made from 100% Dolcetto from 25-30 year old vines in the Trifolera zone, which is named after the prized white truffles that can be found in the area. The grapes are harvested in late September and vinified entirely in stainless steel tanks to ensure maximum freshness and fragrance. About the Vineyard - The first of three crests extending from Tre Stelle to Martinenga, the Trifolera vineyard mention has never been used to produce Barbaresco wine. Few are the levels of quality comparable to the top in this field, which explains why there is a higher number of Dolcetto and Barbera vineyards. Wine Production - Vinification and storage exclusively in stainless steel. Tasting Notes - Ruby red in color with violet tints, the Dolcetto d'Alba Trifolera entices the senses with notes of juicy black cherries, black currants and violets. This wine is very elegant and velvety with harmonious flavors and a pleasantly bitter aftertaste. Food Pairing - This wine is highly recommended with vegetable pastas, roasted game hens or pork tenderloin with cranberry sauce.
