Dolcetto is a black Italian grape variety widely grown in the Piedmont region of Italy. The name in Italian means ‘little sweet one’. Traditionally it makes a dry table red, but here at Vineyard 28 we’ve opted to make a fun, distinctive fruit driven sweet wine.

Handpicked, crushed and destemmed. Ferment commences on skins. 24-36 hours into ferment, it is pressed off to separate skins from the juice. Cold fermented to a desired residual sugar level . (10-20g/l) Sterile filtered to cease ferment. Wine fined and cold stabilised prior to bottling.
