Description and technical sheet
The Dolcetto d'Alba Sant'Anna 2017 by Ferdinando Principiano is born from the grapes of two hectares of vineyards at 400 metres above sea level with forty years of age, located in the localities of Sant'Anna and San Martino di Monforte d'Alba. After fermentation with maceration on the skins for three weeks, the wine rests for ten months in steel and then for a few more months in the bottle, before being put on the market. Ferdinando, who had worked in conventional viticulture for the previous 10 years, in 2003 began a process of conversion, not admittedly to organic or biodynamic, but towards everything, that means respect for the environment and integrity.
DOLCETTO D'ALBA SANT'ANNA FERDINANDO PRINCIPIANO: TASTING
The Dolcetto d'Alba Sant'Anna 2017 by Ferdinando Principiano is presented in the glass of a ruby red colour with violet glints; on the nose, it is rich in red berries, mentholated balms and pepper. In the mouth, it is very fresh, with the tannin well present. It goes well with preparations based on white meat rich in aroma, for example stewed rabbit, or with semi-aged cheeses, such as taleggio or fontina; also very good with roast beef prepared with lots of rosemary, sage and bay leaf.
