Tasting notes
The 2023 Dolcetto d'Alba Bricco Bastia pours a youthful purple/magenta color and offers a mucky bouquet with savory notes of stewed berries, mushroom covered earth, and mocha. Medium-bodied, it has refreshing, even acidity and an elegant feel on the palate, with fine tannins and a soft, stony texture. It’s a charming and savory wine to enjoy over the next few years.

The 2023 Dolcetto d'Alba Bricco Bastia is brisk, vibrant and full of character. In this vintage, the Dolcetto is a bit light in color, a reflection of both elevation and rain just before harvest that accelerated picking. Those attributes come through in the wine's Nebbiolo-like color and light-bodied structure. Even so, the 2023 is delightful in its classicism.
