023 Dolcetto - 2017 Idiot’s Grace & 2018 Pecchenino San Luigi Dogliani

This weeks episode of Wine Time Fridays is all about the Dolcetto grape, a variety native to Piedmont, in Italy. A week ago Shelley and Phil were not too familiar with this grape but really enjoyed both offerings they taste through, a Pecchenino San Luigi Dogliani (from Italy) and one they found in their own backyard from Idiot’s Grace, a winery in Oregon although this fruit is from the Columbia Gorge in Washington.
