Tenute Cisa Asinari Marchesi di Gresy Dolcetto d'Alba DOC 2016 Review

You know how people say cook with the wine you want to drink? This is it. Sip this wine while you cook with this wine and then finish it with a cheese plate before or after dinner. With a beautiful, deep ink hue and notes of vanilla, almond, dark cherries and earth this wine will tuck right up into your soul and sing for a while. The mouthfeel is soft and broad on the palate with the grippy tannins bringing a slight bitter note to the almond with an added hint of blueberry for good measure.
