Rinaldi Dolcetto d'Alba Roussot 2024: Rich Complexity in Every Glass

Amira Benali — Nice enough, does the job

7/10

Saw this recommended online and gave it a go. It's a solid red — dark berries, bit of herb and spice, nothing offensive. Goes well with pasta and cheese. Not sure it's worth over twenty quid every time but I wouldn't turn it down if someone opened one.

Derek Chang — Solid Italian red

7/10

Had this at a friend's place and liked it enough to track down a bottle myself. It's got a proper weight to it and the tannins are smooth, not that dry grippy thing I hate. The bramble and spice thing on the finish is lovely. Decent midweek treat.

Jorge Castillo — Good but not amazing

6/10

The wine shop guy recommended this as something different from the usual Malbec and it's alright. Nice enough dark fruit and some herby notes but honestly for £22.50 I expected a bit more wow factor. Would probably try a different Dolcetto next time to compare.
