Enticed by foreign (American) buyers who prefer bigger wines with thicker skins that mirror the style of California Cabs, winemakers began to rip out their Dolcetto plantings in the 1990’s in favor of the more expensive, easier to market Barolo and Barberescos. It came down to money, not quality and quietly the wine world mourned.
But it wasn’t the case for all of Piedmont, particularly in Dogliani just south of Alba, where grand cru vineyards are not Nebbiolo– they’re Dolcetto. Heck, the grape is so sacred in Dogliani, most wineries like today’s Anna Maria Abonna doesn’t even make a Nebbiolo! All the best spots in the vineyard are reserved for Dolcetto. And with good reason.
Anna Maria’s vineyard is the highest elevation in all of Dogliani. The original plantings, the work of Anna Maria’s grandfather in the 1930’s are still being utilized today, producing incredibly beautiful dark fruited gems with wonderful natural acidity thanks to the high elevation and cool, breezy nights.

For years, we’ve sold oceans of Tony Soter’s Etude Lyric Pinot Noir for fifteen bucks a bottle or so. Other than CHAD, it’s pretty much the only ‘value’ domestic Pinot Noir I’ve ever cared for. Why did customers love it so much? Well, first off- it’s a fantastic price. People love that. But more importantly – it’s a well-made, truly gulpable Pinot – full of easy, breezy bright cherry fruits and truly suitable as a cocktail wine.
The second year of this elegant, silky smooth Willamette Valley Pinot Noir crafted by Bertrand de Villane of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti fame. Again it comes from the gorgeous Winter’s Hill Estate about 700 feet above sea level in the Dundee Hills. All indications are that the 2019 is going to be one of the best for Pinot Noir since 1991. A flawless summer that benefited from very little rain mixed with cool, breezy summer nights. With a round, supple mouthfeel and a sturdy backbone this will age gracefully for a decade plus. Bertrand’s wines just have a signature stamp that is unmistakably his. This is phenomenal.
