Dolcetto d'Alba

Ooof, the nose is absolutely gorgeous - perfumed and vivid, with a cascade of red and black fruit, a floral lift, and just a trace of stemminess. On the palate, it's juicy and seamless, but there's a sense of something missing - a slight hollowness that keeps it from reaching the same emotional high. Still, it's very good. A unicorn, yes, but if I had to choose, I'd take the other unicorn: the 2022 Dolcetto d'Alba from Cascina delle Rose.
