Pecchenino's 2018 Dolcetto from Dogliani shows ruby red with violet highlights and a fruit-forward bouquet of currants, raspberries, and blackberries. Classic Dolcetto charm without pretense. The palate stays balanced with sweet tannins and good acidity, making it equally at home with appetizers or roasted meats.

About the Producer
The Pecchenino winery has always been at its core, a family business. Currently the winery is run by Orlando and Attilio Pecchenino, the grandchildren of Attilio Pecchenino.
The first documentation of winemaking activity during the end of the 20th century, when the winery, managed by their grandfather Attilio, had little more than 8 hectares. In the 1970s, the reins of the winery passed into the hands of his son Marino and later, at the end of the 1980s in line with the generational changeover, his sons Orlando and Attilio took over the business.
