Vintage
2013 in the Rogue Valley AVA proved to be the driest year to date, vineyards were also faced with the hottest July recorded in 86 years. However, Italian varieties like Dolcetto thrive in stressful drought, undoubtedly contributing to its dark and savory reputation.
Fermentation
Carefully crafted in a 21,000 square foot urban winery in Medford, OR, this food-friendly classic was vinted to express the true terroir of the Rogue Valley. With a longstanding commitment to native yeast and sulfite-free fermentation, the varietal integrity holds true.
Tasting Notes
Having aged significantly, this 2013 Dolcetto boasts a fully developed tasting experience. A dry and medium-bodied drinker possessing subtle dark fruit notes including plum and blackberry bramble. Emerging secondary flavors of dark chocolate and black pepper naturally accompany soft tannins. An earthy and smooth finish proves this wine's extended cellaring has made it perfect for daily enjoyment.
