Dolcetto d'Alba DOC Priavino Roberto Voerzio Roberto Voerzio 1997

The wine

It is a deep ruby red and delivers red and dark berries on the nose (blackcurrant, wild strawberry, and olives). It is remarkably supple on the palate and is perfectly balanced.

About the Producer Roberto Voerzio

Roberto Voerzio, who belongs to a winemaking family, decided to go it alone in 1986 on a 2-hectare plot on the family vineyard. His domaine has gradually acquired a fine reputation for its quality wines, which offer a perfect combination of power and elegance. He is now one of the Barolo big hitters. Accomplished wine grower and skilful vintner Roberto Voerzio specialises in high-density planting and very low yields with a view to distilling the quintessence of his terroirs. He is known notably for creating the very opposite of powerful, extracted and woody wines. Voerzio reflects the ethos of combining modernity and tradition and his bottles are iconic and authentic.
