WTN: Gigi Rosso Rocca - Giovino Dolcetto d'Alba 2007

Cantina Gigi Rosso

Good rich cherry red in the glass.

Cherry fruit, bitter notes on the nose.

Full in the mouth, spicy, cherry pie, red licorice, a mild bitter bite, soft mouthfeel, tangy and drying toward the end.

With time, the dryness increased and the rather forward fruit that I had noticed earlier, faded a bit.

Drying, mouthwatering and tangy on the finish.

A very nice wine and it matched very well with our meals.

Purchased from a restaurant wine list at $42 (Canadian).
