This vintage gave us a great balance between structure and freshness and this balance is the main characteristic of the best vintages of this wine. The tasting there shows a very intense purple color to the eye while the nose we find strong notes of berries, plum and black cherry as well as a fresh and vinous notes. Tasting it we can appreciate a very full and intense body, a light tannin cleanses the palate and gives structure, acidity balances the alcohol. The "Papa Celso" is the ideal wine in combination with the great classics of Piedmontese cuisine and it is a Dolcetto that also knows how to face the challenge of time, being able to evolve even after many years.
