Langhe Dolcetto DOC is a fresh, fragrant red wine representing a constant presence on the tables of the Langhe region. Known for its perfect balance of moderate tannins and a pleasantly bitter finish, this Dolcetto is both approachable and versatile. The grapes are sourced from vineyards across the Langhe, with a significant portion coming from Dogliani, cultivated at 500 metres above sea level—an area celebrated for its strong Dolcetto tradition.

Meet the Producer
The historical “soldier” label, created by Renato Ratti, honours the heroism of Piedmontese regiments in the 18th century. Bottled in the iconic Albeisa bottle, designed by Ratti in 1973, the wine reflects the uniqueness of Alba and its surrounding terroir.

Production
Grapes are hand-picked in September, de-stemmed, and gently pressed. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks with roughly one week of skin contact. Malolactic fermentation also takes place in steel containers, preserving the wine’s freshness, fragrance, and natural acidity.

Tasting Notes
Langhe Dolcetto DOC displays a ruby red colour with vivid violet highlights. The nose is aromatic, revealing scents of cherry, ripe plum, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it is balanced, fresh, and lightly tannic, with a fragrant, vinous character and a pleasantly bitter aftertaste.

Food Pairing
An ideal everyday wine, Langhe Dolcetto DOC pairs beautifully with Italian-style antipasti, pasta dishes, and fresh cheeses. Its moderate alcohol and vibrant freshness make it perfect for both casual and traditional meals.
