Nicholas Altare took over the family business at the age of 16, as soon as his father agreed to convert to organic farming. Until 2015 his family had sold grapes to other winemakers. The Dogliani from Nicholas Altare is made with 100% Dolcetto (a native black variety in Piedmont) and it is produced in limited quantity from Nicholas’ two hectares of vineyards in San Luigi, a small hamlet in the heart of the Dogliani designation.
This is an easy drinking juicy dolcetto, full of redcurrants and cherry juice, with velvetty tannin reminding you we're still in Northern Italy.
