Il Dogliani DOCG di Francesco Versio è un vino rosso piemontese di grande carattere, ricavato esclusivamente da uve Dolcetto. Il suo colore vivido, che varia dal rosso rubino al porpora intenso, preannuncia un'esperienza gustativa affascinante. Al naso, si apre con profumi fruttati di ciliegie selvatiche, prugne e note di sottobosco, arricchiti da sentori floreali di violetta e leggere sfumature speziate derivanti dall'affinamento. In bocca, il Dogliani si presenta con una struttura bilanciata e armoniosa, accompagnata da una piacevole freschezza e da tannini morbidi e ben integrati. Il finale lungo e persistente lascia una sensazione di pulizia e invita al sorso successivo, rendendolo ideale per accompagnare piatti della tradizione piemontese come agnolotti al ragù, carni rosse grigliate e formaggi stagionati. Grazie alla cura e alla passione di Francesco Versio, questo Dogliani esprime al meglio le potenzialità del vitigno Dolcetto e il terroir unico delle colline di Langhe, offrendo un vino autentico e coinvolgente che racconta storie di territori e tradizioni millenarie. Perfetto da gustare giovane, ma con potenziale di invecchiamento, si consiglia di servirlo a una temperatura di 16-18°C per apprezzarne appieno le sfumature aromatiche.
