This wine is made with utmost care and attention, based on the following information: the vineyard has exposure to both west and east. The vineyard was planted in 1977 and the first harvest took place in 2021. The grapes are harvested by hand and collected in perforated crates. After harvesting, the wine matures for eight months in cement vats. We have a deep belief in the potential of the Dolcetto grape, which is why we vinify only the very best grapes that come from our Bricco Paris vineyard. By being able to select the best bunches from each individual plant, we can compensate for the imbalance in dry years and achieve excellent quality. The wine has an alcohol content of 13%

When poured, the wine stands out for its intense ruby red colour. In the nose, aromas of red fruits such as sour cherry and cherry emerge, along with floral notes of fresh red flowers. Hints of cocoa beans and tobacco are also present.
When tasting the wine, you experience freshness from the fresh red fruit, a subtle hint of citrus, and a mineral touch. The wine has a good balance and finishes with a pleasant juiciness that invites you for the next sip.
Agnelli Viassone is a young wine company from the Langhe region between Grinzane and Diano d'Alba in Piedmont. It was Alessia's father Piero who bought the farm in 1985.
In 2020, it was his daughter Alessio and Daniele who, full of enthusiasm and determination, handed over the keys and called Agnelli Viassono into the world. They seized the opportunity to immerse the rest of the world in the atmosphere and unique characteristics of their region.

Dolcetto van het wat zwaardere type. Mooie, ambachtelijke wijn, die hoog scoort. Ten onrechte scoren Dolcetto's wel heel veel lager dan de Nebbiolo-wijnen. Vooral in prijs. Dolcetto-wijnen zijn ongecomplieerder maar drinken heerlijk weg en iedereen vindt ze lekker.
