Descrizione

The Sorì Costa Fiore di Alario Claudio presents itself with lively simplicity and naturalness: a Dolcetto di Diano d’Alba DOCG that maintains a fragrant, immediate profile without sterile complications. At first approach it offers aromas of small dark fruits and a floral touch that doesn't overpower, accompanied by a slightly spicy note; the sip is lean yet substantial, with soft tannins and a freshness that keeps it lively.

The mouthfeel is savory and smooth, with a finish that evokes ripe fruit more than sweetness. It's a wine to enhance everyday enjoyment: it pairs well with cured meats and rustic pastas, pizzas, or medium-aged cheeses; serve it slightly chilled to accentuate its vivacity. Ideal for those seeking an honest, easy-to-read wine with a pleasant balance between fruit and sleekness.

Winery history

The family has cultivated vineyards in Diano d'Alba for generations; estate records state that the first bottles bearing the Alario Claudio label were produced in 1988. Some historic crus of the estate, such as Sorì Costa Fiore, have been cultivated by the family for decades (vines planted in the mid-20th century in the cited parcels).

Production philosophy

The estate prioritizes a clear link between vineyard and bottle: wines that express their cru of origin. In the vineyard, it aims for controlled yields and careful work to achieve concentration and quality; in the cellar, method and patience highlight the characteristics of native grape varieties.

Terroir and vineyards

Located in Diano d'Alba, in the heart of the Langhe (province of Cuneo, Piedmont). The estate's vineyards include parcels in the area's crus and in other municipalities of the Langhe district; Sorì Costa Fiore is described as a southwest-facing vineyard at about 350 m above sea level, with calcareous-marly soils (the parcel area is given as 2 ha in the individual cru description).
