MOSBY Dolcetto

MOSBY Dolcetto Wine Details
Price: $16.00 per bottle

Description: Bill Mosby’s fourth release of Dolcetto is here. The 2001 Mosby Dolcetto is a limited production wine that is rapidly gaining attention! The 2001 Mosby Dolcetto has a nose with spicy hints of mace, leather and forest floor. The backbone of tannin is interlaced with clean raspberry fruit, followed by a firm, griping finish. Bill crafted this wine in the style of the famous Dolcetto d'Albas, and we enjoy it paired with hearty entrees - try it with roasted duck, or beef short ribs braised in red wine. While this Dolcetto is delicious now, it has the stamina for up to five years of cellar time.

Varietal Definition
Dolcetto:
Italian red grape from the Piedmont area of the North West. Produces soft varietal wines for early drinking. Gives lots of up front fruit with soft tannins with a style not unlike the Gamay of Beaujolais.
