Cavallotto
Vigna Scot Dolcetto d'Alba
Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Italian bistro wine. I would say trattoria wine, but I think bistro wine has a better connotation. Makes any dinner a more pleasant experience.

Reminds me of Italy. That means it's doing its job. This is what you drink when you wish Barolo was cheaper.

Light, fresh and pleasant drinking with the regional cuisine. Just table wine really, but oh so good.

Smooth, drinkable - would pair well with anything. Had with a wonderful Italian meal.
Ruby wine club notes: The Cavallotto family claims sole ownership of the beautiful Bricco Boschis cru in the Castiglione Falletto district (also home to Azelia), where they have been growing Nebbiolo since 1929 and bottling their own wine since 1948. These richly structured wines place emphasis on elegance and longevity, attributable to excellent vineyards in the Bricco Boschis and Vignolo crus and traditional long maturation periods in large Slovenian-oak casks. After meeting and tasting with Winemaker and owner Alfio Cavallotto, I was incredibly impressed with his wines and thought his Dolcetto was one of the best I had tasted all year. This wine offers the crunchy red fruits for which Dolcetto is known for, with an element of licorice, and sandalwood. This Impressive effort will pair with just about anything, but it is highly fashionable with pasta and grilled meats.

If you order wine with your pie at Pizzeria Mozza, this is the one. Dark purple, but light in texture. Let it breathe until the pizza arrives, then enjoy how it amplifies any topping that the restaurant is serving. A knockout!
