Dogliani Superiore Pirochetta Amphorae - Cascina Corte

Production

Dogliani Superiore Pirochetta Amphorae by Cascina Corte is made from a selection of the traditional grape variety of Dogliani, sourced from a historic vineyard planted between 1946 and 1951. The vines, trained using the Guyot system with a density of 5,500 plants per hectare, grow on soils composed of limestone, blue tuff and clay. Yields are limited to 35 quintals per hectare, while harvesting is carried out by hand around mid-September. The wine is organically certified.

In the cellar, maceration and fermentation take place naturally in amphora, without the addition of selected yeasts and with manual punch-downs. Indigenous yeasts are used, and no filtration or clarification is carried out. The wine is aged for 11 months in amphora and for a further 2 months in bottle, preserving the most authentic expression of the grape variety and the Dogliani terroir.

Dogliani Superiore Pirochetta Amphorae - Cascina Corte: tasting

In the glass, it shows a purple-red colour with ruby-violet highlights. On the nose, it is deep and vertical, with fruity aromas that intertwine to create an enveloping and well-balanced bouquet. Notes of cherry, plum and redcurrant gradually give way to spicy nuances and hints of liquorice.

On the palate, it displays firmness, structure and character, while still retaining softness and roundness. The tannin is evident yet well integrated, and the finish is long and persistent. With excellent ageing potential, it pairs beautifully with richly flavoured meat dishes, soups, cured meats and cheeses.
