Dolcetto makes for such a super drinkable and refreshing red wine that it always seems strange that it isn't more popular, especially when the winemaker is none other than Massolino. Red and blue fruit flavours is what this Italian red is all about, with this lovely spicy bitter twist to what is otherwise a bright and fruit forward wine but with a lovely refreshing firm edge to it.

The Massolino family's history as winegrowers stretches back more than a century. The village of Serralunga d'Alba, in Italy's beautiful Langhe hills, has been home to this venerable Italian producer since the late 19th century. From founder Giovanni Massolino to the present day, this is a proud family estate with a heritage richly intertwined with that of the whole region of 'Barolo'. Importantly, the Massolinos own some of the most prized patches of vines in all of Italy, including the famous Margheria, Parafada, and Vigna Rionda vineyards, as well as their long history of excellence. Classic styles are what Massolino are famous for, which translates into the wines being wonderful reds and whites with a pure expression, highlighted by everything from crisp and juicy Moscato and vibrant Dolcetto, right through to absolutely profound Nebbiolo.
