Light ruby red colour. Bric del Salto interprets the famous Piedmontese grape variety in a direct and classic way. A fruity bouquet is combined with the spiciness typical of Neive. The palate is again clear, with precise fruit, the right dose of fine tannins - and an inspiring freshness. SUPERIORE.DE

"A red of purity and grace, this features strawberry, cherry and raspberry fruit, with floral and mineral elements adding complexity. Harmonious and charming, with sneaky tannins lining the finish." Wine Spectator

"The 2023 Dolcetto d'Alba Bric del Salto leaps from the glass with an exotic blend of blueberries, spice, graphite and game. The flavour profile is very Dolcetto, with just a hint of reduction, but the textural feel is very Nebbiolo-like. What a gem of a wine. It was aged for three weeks on the skins and in tank." Vinous

"The Dolcetto d'Alba Bric del Salto 2023 is macerated exclusively in stainless steel with the skins for 35 days. The process adds fragrant aromas of wild berries, roses and dried blueberries. The longer maceration time also makes this a better integrated wine. The tannins and acidity feel very harmonious. It is an elegant expression that has a particular finesse, especially for the often rustic Dolcetto grape." Wine Advocate
