Bartolo Mascarello's Dolcetto d'Alba from the family's Barolo vineyards, made with the same traditional, unhurried approach as their legendary Barolo, in concrete and large old casks. Black cherry and blackberry with violet, bitter almond and an earthy, rustic edge, medium-bodied with a firm but rounded grip. An honest Piedmontese table red, best in its first few years.
