Chionetti has become the ultimate reference point for terroir-driven Dolcetto, with the soulful farmer Quinto Chionetti seen as the pioneer of the style. The Briccolero and San Luigi crus are perfect studies of the unique grace and vivacity of this grape. Both are lively and so wonderfully complex on the nose, with the exquisite combination of spices, fresh-picked flowers, perfume and sensual dark cherry that great Dolcetto should deliver. On the palate the San Luigi is fleshy and crunchy, with a compelling fleck of bitterness like a garnish of roasted broccoli rabe on a perfectly balanced pizza.
