San Fereolo
Dolcetto di Dogliani
Dogliani, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
So you think you know Dolcetto? The '03 San Fereolo challenges the expectations of Dolcetto with a layered bouquet of spiced cherry, blackberry, wood smoke. leather, olive, undergrowth and hints of star anise. On the palate, I found silky, mid-weight textures with sappy black fruits offset by balanced acidity, followed by hints of dried cherry, lavender, and licorice. It finished fresh but long with saturating black fruits, olive and minerals.

Nice Dolcetto but sweeter than it should be. Nice structure but not as good as other vintages.

Hörde jag "mulligt"? Djupt mörkröd färg som drar åt det blå-tegelröda. Mörkbar ålder; kakao, körsbär i likör, lagerblad, lite mogna röda plommon och sen lite mer kakao i tanninerna. Supergott men hade kunnat ha lite högre syra mot slutet.
