'San Luigi' Dogliani DOCG Marziano Abbona 2021

The "San Luigi" Dogliani DOCG from the Marziano Abbona winery is a red that represents, like the most precious of banners, the fresh and drinkable soul of Piedmont. The great protagonist is the Dolcetto grape, a variety that has been grown in the region since the 1600s. In the 1960s, the founder of the company, Celso Abbona, courageously decided to plant a Dolcetto stock in Dogliani, we are in the heart of the Langhe. A choice kissed by luck. Since 1978, the vineyard, located in the hamlet of San Luigi, has housed rows that stretch as far as the eye can see and color the rolling hills of the Langhe red. We are in the heart of the best crus in the area and the company know-how has been able to make the most of these temperate and sunny areas, where the silt of which the soil is rich alternates with sand and clay. The grapes are grown without pesticides and the harvest is entirely manual. The utmost respect for the raw material is also evident during the winemaking process, in which the primary objective is to respect the times and the varietal characteristics typical of Dolcetto. Thanks to the skilful rest in steel, the San Luigi Dogliani DOCG is endowed with an easy and flowing drinkability, especially in the first five years of life.
