Dolcetto d'Alba Bricco Lago 2023

- 91 points -

Just bottled, the 2023 Dolcetto d’Alba Bricco Lago is a powerful, explosive wine. Graphite, lavender, spice and leather meld into a core of intense dark fruit. The 60% stems are not especially noticeable—at this stage, they seem to add energy more than anything else, but I suspect that will change as this recovers from its recent bottling. Clean saline notes extend the nish.
