Tasting - Terre dei Savoia Dolcetto d'Alba

Name: Terre dei Savoia Dolcetto d'Alba
Variety: Dolcetto
Region: Piedmont
Country: Italy
Year: 2011
Price: Frontline $20 sale, $6.95

Store Review: Violet, red berry and underbrush scents come together in this Dolcetto. Its savory, juicy palate evokes crushed blackberry, cherry and a touch of toasted almond alongside lithe tannins.

My Review: This wine was a bit on the dry side, but not too dry for my tastes. The cherry flavors came across nicely for me, along with a not unpleasant slightly bitter finish.

I tried this wine on its own with no food.
