Le Marie Dolcetto Pinerolese DOC 2022

Le Marie is a small family farm and winery in Barge, in the Pinerolese area of NW Piemonte near the French border. Valerio and his wife Luigina Raviolo work alongside their children, Daniele and Simona, to farm their 10 hectares of vineyards, some of which were planted in the 1930s and survived WWII. Barge is nestled at the foot of Monte Viso and Monte Bracco, and the red schist soils, abundant in minerals, combined with the low soil PH and distinctive climate, produce wines of unique character unlike anything else from Piemonte (so unique that the area’s wines were written about by Leonardo Da Vinci!) 100% dolcetto, fermented in stainless steel, this bottling offers delectable notes of candied rose petal, Bing cherry, and black raspberry, alongside hints of mint chocolate on a medium-bodied frame. A versatile accompaniment to a variety of culinary picks! Sustainably grown.
