Chionetti Briccolero Dolcetto Dogliani Tuscany Italy 2011
Rose petals, sun-warmed earth, peppery spices, and minty herbs frame the succulent blue and red fruits in this nuanced yet rustically styled ’11 Dolcetto Briccolero. Silky in the mouth, this wine releases a tempting inner perfume as it oozes across the palate, building to a resounding finish. While the estate’s Dolcetto San Luigi is a transparent expression of terroir, Chionetti’s Dolcetto Briccolero uses protocol to enhance longevity and complexity.
