Dolcetto translates into little sweet one, although the Italians generally make dry red wines from the variety. Brown Brothers, attracted to its vibrant red colour and attractive flavours of ripe summer berries, has opted to blend the precocious Dolcetto with a component of Syrah to produce a youthful, distinctively fruit driven wine. Parcels of Dolcetto and Shiraz grapes are harvested from highly specialized vineyards at ripe levels of baume sugar levels. Parcels are treated to a brisk, temperature controlled vinification, arrested just before palate dryness to retain a little natural sweetness and petulant carbon dioxide, to be bottled immediately upon completion.
