Dogliani Superiore Vigna Pirochetta DOCG - Cascina Corte 2021

The Dogliani Superiore Vigna Pirochetta DOCG produced by Cascina Corte is an exceptional example of how the Dolcetto grape can best express itself in the hills of Piedmont. This wine, coming from one of the most prestigious areas for the production of Dolcetto, reflects the dedication and attention to detail that Cascina Corte pours into each bottle.

The grapes for the Dogliani Superiore Vigna Pirochetta are carefully selected and handpicked from vineyards located on calcareous and clay soils, ideal conditions that allow the Dolcetto to develop a unique complexity of aromas and balance. The winemaking follows traditional methods, with an emphasis on spontaneous fermentation using indigenous yeasts that help to enhance the natural characteristics of the grape.

The result is a wine with an intense ruby red color, with violet reflections suggesting its youthful elegance. On the nose, it opens with aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and a light note of spices and tobacco, a result of aging in wood. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with soft yet persistent tannins that perfectly balance the typical acidity of the Dolcetto. The finish is long and pleasantly aromatic, with an aftertaste of red fruit and a light spiciness.

The Dogliani Superiore Vigna Pirochetta is perfect to serve with hearty dishes like roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses. Its structure and complexity also make it an excellent wine for meditation, to be enjoyed slowly to appreciate every nuance.

With this sublime example of Dogliani Superiore, Cascina Corte manages to convey all the passion and authenticity of a unique territory, making each sip a true sensory journey through the winemaking traditions of Piedmont.
