dole-CHEHT-toh | If you're in the market for a delicious and unique wine, look no further than Dolcetto. This black Italian wine grape is widely grown in the Piedmont region of northwest Italy and is characterized by its tannic, fruity flavor profile with moderate or low levels of acidity. Best consumed within a few years of release, Dolcetto wines are known for their black cherry and licorice notes, along with some prune flavors and a bitter finish that is reminiscent of almonds. Dolcetto is still mostly grown in central Piedmont. Small quantities of this delicious grape can also be found in Australia, California, and France. Whether you're a wine connoisseur or just looking for something new and delicious to try, Dolcetto is an excellent choice.
