Dolcetto di Ovada DOC 2019 LA CAPLANA

Description
Pure and intact in fruit, Dolcetto di Ovada DOC is adorned with precious tertiary tones that make it even more delicate and harmonious.
Intense ruby red in the glass, with violet reflections. The bouquet is initially floral and fruity, marked in particular by aromas of violets and blackberries, enriched with precious nuances of cocoa and cinchona bark.
It is round and full, fine and harmonious, with good persistence and marked by the typical bitter finish; perfect throughout the meal, it is naturally brought to first courses and main courses with meat, mainly white.

Family history
The Guido family has been dedicated to grape growing and wine production for a century. In 1925, thanks to the technique of American grafting, our grandparents saved the vineyards from the terrible phylloxera. In the 1960s, despite the gradual desertion of the campaigns, our father continued to work tirelessly on them his lands.

Philosophy

The vineyards, located in the highest hills dedicated to the production of Gavi and Dolcetto di Ovada, have considerable difficulties of cultivation because of the significant slopes of the soil, this hilly shape combined with the nature white earth loamy and ultra-formal screws, give us our characteristic wines of richness, body and intensity aromatic products that last over time. The elegant female figures depicted on our labels are freely inspired by the portraits of women by the famous artist Amedeo Modigliani (Livorno 1884-Paris 1920).
