Dolcetto D'Alba Prunotto 2020
D.O Barbera D'Asti
Description
Dolcetto D'Alba Prunotto is a red wine made with Dolcetto in the DOC Dolcetto D'Alba by Prunotto.
Dolcetto is a historic wine from the long winemaking tradition of Piedmont. Ageing takes place in steel vats to achieve the maximum expression of aromas and flavours characteristic of this grape variety.
The grapes were brought to the winery, destemmed and crushed. The maceration on the skins lasted for a period of 6 days at a temperature of no more than 27-28°C. Malolactic fermentation was completed in mid-December. The wine was then left to age in stainless steel tanks.
