WINE DESCRIPTION

Bruno Rocca Trifolé Dolcetto d'Alba is a premium red wine produced by Bruno Rocca, a highly respected winery located in the Piedmont region of Italy. The wine is made from Dolcetto grapes grown in the estate's Trifolé vineyard, which benefits from the area's unique terroir, characterized by sandy and calcareous soils and a cool climate. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including aging in stainless steel tanks, which preserves the bright fruit flavors and aromas of the grapes. The resulting wine is medium-bodied and fruity, with notes of black cherry, plum, and a hint of almond, making it an ideal choice for pairing with pasta dishes, grilled meats, and aged cheeses.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Bruno Rocca Trifolé Dolcetto d'Alba is a true expression of the Dolcetto grape.Its nose is loaded with fragrant aromas of ripe blackberry, cherry and plum, and it has a lively acidity that supports the vibrant fruit flavors. The palate is silky and smooth, with notes of sweet spice, earth and leather. The finish is dry and lingering, with a pleasant, earthy aftertaste. An excellent food pairing, this Dolcetto would be great with roasted game, grilled vegetables, and sharp cheeses.
