Dolcetto

There are some amazing prices in the local market at this point in time.  I did a double take when I saw the price on the 2013Mauro Veglio Dolcetto D'Alba.  Several years ago I was paying $15 for this wine and loved it at that price point.  It tastes much better at $10 a bottle.

It seems a little lighter than I was expecting, but it was still full of dark cherries and Italian soil.  We had no trouble at all drinking it with thick, grilled veal chops and some faro cooked in a combination of beef and chicken stock.   

2103 Mauro Veglio Dolcetto D'Alba.  13% alcohol and $10.
