Cascina degli Ulivi 2006 Monferrato Dolcetto Terre Rosse Nibiô

I just love when a wine reflects the soil it came from.   It makes me feel like I am there!   Sniffing this wine transported me to Italy in my mind.   Rocky scent, with loads of chocolate on the nose as well.   Very little fruit coming through but some blackberryness.   Midpalate – DRY, acidic, tannic.   Berry and mineral flavors that linger on the finish.   This wine just begs for a good Italian dish.   Very unique and exciting.   And for the price, it is a must try.   But I’d have to say… this, like most other Italian wine, is a food wine.   Drink it alone and you may be disappointed.   Pair it with the right dish and just savor the scent… and you’ll love it!
