Dolcetto

Dolcetto is a red grape variety originating from Italy’s Piedmont region, known for producing soft, fruit-driven wines with low acidity and gentle tannins. In Australia, Dolcetto thrives in cooler regions, where it retains its signature vibrant flavours of black cherry, plum, and spice, often with a hint of almond on the finish. Typically medium-bodied and easy-drinking, Australian Dolcetto is a great option for those seeking a smooth and approachable red wine.

Unlike its name, which translates to "little sweet one," Dolcetto is usually dry, with a plush mouthfeel and a food-friendly structure. Its versatility makes it well-suited to pairing with everything from pizza and pasta to roasted meats, reflecting its Italian heritage while showcasing the unique characteristics of Australian terroir.
