Vigne Dolci comes from the Rocca Ciglie vineyard in Dogliani, where lighter, sandier soils sit at roughly 600 meters elevation. That terroir sets this wine apart from San Fereolo's other cru, Valdiba: where Valdiba is dense and chewy on clay-chalk, Vigne Dolci is racy and energetic, with a lifted purity that runs through every sip.
Nicoletta Bocca ferments with native yeasts and keeps her hands off the process, allowing just the faintest trace of volatile acidity to surface, a signature that adds lift rather than distraction. The wine is aged in stainless steel, which preserves the vineyard's character without layering on wood or oxidative notes.
Dolcetto from Dogliani carries a natural bitterness on the finish, here expressed as snappy tannins and a subtle almond note. The grape is one of Piedmont's three principal red varieties, and in the Dogliani DOCG it reaches a fuller structure than in Dolcetto d'Alba or Dolcetto d'Asti, with more aromatic complexity and genuine aging potential.
The 2016 vintage shows an earth-tinged savory streak alongside red and dark fruit. It is dry, medium-bodied, and built for food rather than contemplation on its own.
