The Chionetti family has been intertwined with vines since the 19th century. The pivotal moment occurred in 1912 when Giuseppe Chionetti acquired a farmhouse in San Luigi, an area in Dogliani particularly suited to vineyards. From that point forward, the Chionetti family became synonymous with Dolcetto. Dogliani stands indeed as one of the most historically significant and high-quality Dolcetto regions.
Why do we like it?
Harvest takes place in October, followed by alcoholic fermentation in oak vats. Subsequently, it undergoes aging in untoasted large French oak barrels. The wine is not filtered. The color is ruby with subtle hints; on the nose, you’ll find fruity notes of peach and blackberry, delicate floral hints of rose, and subtle touches of spice like pepper and licorice. On the palate, it is substantial, supported by lively yet well-integrated tannins; it finishes with a fresh and pleasing acidity.
