Valletti 2016 – Dogliani

The nose is fruity, fresh, powerful and offers a small concentration. It reveals notes of fresh Quetsche plum, cassis and small notes of liquorice stick associated with touches of fresh violet, nutmeg, chocolate, graphite as well as slight hints of Ceylon tea and a discreet hint of blond tobacco. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, fresh, mineral and offers tension, a small straightness, a good juiciness, a good gourmandize, roundness, a fine power as well as a juicy and very slightly acidulous frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy blackberry, juicy/fresh Quetsche plum and small notes of raspberry associated with fine touches of small blue fruits, flowers as well as slight hints of nutmeg and Ceylon tea. Tannins offer a very discreet chew. Good length. A wine on the fruit, gourmandize and offers a small fleshiness.
