2019 La Vecchia Posta 'Teraforta' Dolcetto, Colli Tortonesi, Piedmont, Italy
$19.99
“Teraforta” Dolcetto takes its power from the clay-rich soils dolcetto loves, and its freshness and perfume from Roberto’s well-ventilated, high-elevation sites. Grown here dolcetto becomes a high-toned expression with remarkably fresh acidity each vintage. The wine is spontaneously fermented in stainless, on its skins, for roughly a week before being racked to finish malolactic in stainless steel where the wine ages an additional 6 months before bottling.
