ABOUT

Schiavenza Dolcetto d’Alba DOC captures the inviting, fruit-driven character of Piedmont’s Langhe hills in a distinctly traditional Italian red wine. Made from 100% Dolcetto grapes grown in Serralunga d’Alba, it combines ripe cherry flavors, lively freshness, and a pleasantly dry finish.

Ruby-red in the glass, this expressive Piedmont red reveals bright red fruit, darker cherry nuances, and delicate spice. Traditional fermentation in concrete vats preserves the grape’s personality, while its generous palate and subtle almond finish bring an unmistakable regional touch.

Approachable yet structured, this Dolcetto pairs everyday versatility with authentic Langhe character. Pour it alongside Italian comfort food, savory antipasti, or a relaxed dinner built around rich tomato sauces and grilled meats.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Fresh and inviting, the nose opens with ripe cherry, red berries, and black cherry, followed by a subtle floral lift and delicate spice.

Palate: Juicy fruit meets a firm, food-friendly structure. Bright freshness balances the concentrated cherry flavors, while measured tannins give the wine satisfying grip without overwhelming its easygoing character.

Finish: A gently savory finish lingers with bitter almond and dark cherry. Dry, persistent, and distinctly Piedmontese, it leaves the palate refreshed and ready for another bite.

FOOD PAIRING

A natural match for Italian cooking. Schiavenza Dolcetto d’Alba works beautifully with tomato-based pasta, wood-fired pizza, and lasagna, where its fresh fruit complements savory sauces.

For a heartier meal, serve it with grilled sausages, roasted chicken, lamb chops, or beef meatballs. Its dry profile and gentle almond bitterness also complement aged cheeses, cured meats, and rustic antipasti.

Serve slightly cool, around 14–16°C (57–61°F), to highlight its fruit and freshness.
