The pure cherry core is enhanced by floral and spice notes in this tight, linear red. Firm, showing ample grip on the lingering finish. Drink now through 2015.

A cinnamon aroma introduces cherry and bitter almond in this solid Dolcetto, finishing on the austere side, with dusty tannins. Drink now through 2012.
