Nibio Dolcetto: the authentic expression of Piedmont

Nibio Dolcetto by Cascina degli Ulivi - Ilaria Bellotti is a Piedmontese red wine with a sincere, territorial, and immediate profile, designed for those seeking a Dolcetto with character and great naturalness. The choice of spontaneous fermentation and the absence of added sulfites, along with aging in barrel, contribute to defining a recognizable artisanal style, capable of uniting drinkability and depth.

Territory and wine style

This wine originates in Piedmont from Dolcetto grapes grown in a small vineyard, with yields suggesting a careful production focused on quality. The iron-rich red clay and limestone soil helps give the wine a savory texture and a more precise structure, while the Guyot vineyard management and the balanced density of the plants are elements consistent with a careful approach to grape ripening. The result is a territorial, straightforward, and gastronomic red that interprets Dolcetto in a natural and contemporary way.

Tasting notes

Nibio Dolcetto presents the typical character of the grape variety: intense red color, aromas of ripe red fruit, floral nuances, and darker, spicier hints, supported by a fresh and dynamic texture. On the palate, the sip tends to be dry, direct, and pleasantly juicy, with a medium body and tannins that are present but not aggressive. The maceration on the skins and aging in barrel contribute to making the wine more complex and harmonious, with a clean finish and a persistence that invites a second glass.

Recommended pairings

It is a very versatile red at the table and pairs easily with cured meats, traditional Piedmontese appetizers, flavorful first courses, and not overly elaborate white and red meats. It also works well with roasts, vitello tonnato, tajarin with ragù, baked pasta, and medium-aged cheeses. Its natural freshness and dry profile make it suitable for rich dishes that are not excessively structured, enhancing their flavors without overpowering them.

Serving temperature

The ideal temperature for Nibio Dolcetto is between 15 and 17 °C. When served slightly cooler, it is particularly smooth and lively; at a slightly higher temperature, the fruity and spicy notes emerge better. A long aeration is not necessary, but a brief opening before serving can help express the wine's balance at its best.
