WINE DESCRIPTION

Pecchenino San Luigi Dogliani is a red wine produced by the Pecchenino family in the Dogliani appellation of Piedmont, Italy. The wine is made from the Dolcetto grape variety, which is grown in the family's vineyards located on the hillsides of Dogliani. The vineyards are characterized by their south-facing exposure, which allows for optimal ripening of the grapes. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in large oak barrels. The resulting wine is a medium-bodied red with a deep ruby color and aromas of dark fruit and spices. On the palate, it is dry and well-structured with a long finish. Pecchenino San Luigi Dogliani is a great example of the high-quality wines produced in the Piedmont region of Italy.
