Massolino Dolcetto d'Alba – Tradition and character from Piedmont
Since 1896, the Massolino family has been producing this Dolcetto d'Alba – a striking example of Piedmontese craftsmanship and tradition. The careful hand-harvesting of the finest Dolcetto grapes and the gentle vinification in stainless steel and cement tanks preserve the authenticity and freshness of this wine.
On the nose, it unfolds lively, fruity aromas with elegant finesse. On the palate, it is fresh, harmonious, and has a pleasant warmth that transitions into a dense, fruity body. Its pronounced "wineiness" and long, pleasant persistence make it far more than just an everyday wine—it impresses with depth and character.
Its optimal drinking window extends from 2025 to 2029, during which time it unfolds its full potential. Perfect with classic Piedmontese dishes such as pasta with meat sauce, risotto, or grilled meat.
In short: a classic Dolcetto that reflects the soul of Piedmont – soft, round and with an elegant, long finish.
The Massolino Vigna Rionda winery is without doubt one of the ten best in the entire Langhe region. The Massolino siblings are showered with praise by wine critics and the international press alike for their world-class wines, from the classic Dolcetto to the high-quality Barolo single-vineyard wine. Founded more than 100 years ago in Serralunga D'Alba, Massolino Vigna Rionda has remained a family business to this day and is run by the fourth Massolino generation, Franco, Paola and Roberto. The guiding principle for all Massolino wines is reflected in a very clearly defined production philosophy: a precise product that fully reflects the characteristics of the fruit and the terroir. The Massolino Barolo and Barbaresco wines embody the best that this grape variety has to offer: long-lasting wines with great fruit density, complexity and power. All of this perfectly combined with incredible finesse and elegance.
This Dolcetto is also very suitable for cold cuts and cheese dishes or for pasta, risotto and red meat, especially grilled meat, which goes well with its structure and increases its drinkability.
