Rocche Costamagna Dolcetto d'Alba

This is exactly what I look for in a Dolcetto—that dark cherry flavor is so intense and fresh, and the bitter almond finish gives it a nice little kick. Opened a bottle with pasta last night and it was perfect.

This Dolcetto really delivers on that dark cherry flavor the description promises, and the light bitter almond twist on the finish makes it perfect with a simple weeknight pasta. It’s fresh enough to enjoy on its own but has enough depth to stand up to food. I’ve already grabbed another bottle.

Poured a glass last night and was struck by how fresh it tastes—that dark cherry really comes through without being heavy. A solid everyday red that delivers way more than its price point suggests.
