Here’s a very generous Dolcetto d’Alba that shows dried blackberries, frozen elderberries, black raspberries and citrus. Firm and structured on the medium-bodied palate, where a steely line of acidity and tannins runs right through the vivacious dark fruit. Quite tannic now, so drink from 2021.
Don't let the name fool you. This Dolcetto does not come from vineyards on the shores of the beautiful Lombardy lake. Madonna di Como, in fact, is located in the town of Alba, the heart of the truest Langa. The vineyards are on a hill with altitudes from 280 to 300 metres above sea level. The harvest takes place in September and the vinification is super traditional. Fermentation in stainless steel at a controlled temperature for 8/10 days. Frequent pumping over to extract all the colour from the skins, then malolactic fermentation and a quick refining of about 6 months in steel. That's all. After all, this is a young wine intended for quick consumption. Brilliant ruby red color with intense violet reflections, the nose is intense, with fruity and floral aromas. In the mouth, however, it is harmonious and complex. Sensations of fresh fruit are accompanied by a well evident and mature tannin. In the finish, a pleasant almond note.
Barbaresco and Barolo. Then Nebbiolo, Barbera d'Alba, Arneis and even Moscato. The production of Azienda Agricola Pietro Rinaldi ranges over practically all the good wines of the Langa. A family tradition that has been handed down for four generations, from father to son with the same great passion. There are a total of 10 hectares of vineyards, all hilly, all with very different soils and exposures. And this is why each plot of land is able to give life to something unique, unrepeatable. Today the farm is run by a young and passionate team, always ready to take up the challenges of the new international markets, without losing sight of its deep ties with the territory of origin. This is another reason why Azienda Agricola Pietro Rinaldi has joined the Green Experience group, for the production of sustainable and organic wines.
