Paulin

2012 Dolcetto D'alba Dolcetto

The Gagliardo Paulin is a remarkable red wine from the esteemed Dolcetto D'Alba region, showcasing the quintessential characteristics of the Dolcetto varietal. This 2012 vintage presents a lovely medium-bodied profile, where bright acidity dances on the palate, providing a refreshing counterpoint to its fruit-forward nature. The wine reveals an abundance of soft, ripe black cherry and plum flavors, intermingled with subtle hints of herbs and earthiness, creating a delightful complexity. With its approachable tannins, the Gagliardo Paulin offers a smooth, harmonious finish that is not overly dry, making it an excellent choice for a variety of food pairings. This beautifully crafted wine truly captures the essence of its region, appealing to both casual drinkers and connoisseurs alike.

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
