Dogliotti 1870, Extra Brut, 2018, Piemonte, Italy

I’m starting to see how good Italian sparkling wine can be and this one from Dogliotti 1870 is stunning. Made with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it’s dry and crisp with yeasty notes. A hint of floral is in there, it’s rich with good acidity and balance and a long lasting finish. It’s a bit like a high-end fiat 500, get past the badge and you’ll find a really good product.
