Dogliani is the name of both the wine and the subregion of Piedmont in which this wine is grown. It is located just a few miles south of the wine village Barolo and is characterized by rolling hills and a moderate climate. Because this area is higher in elevation and enjoys a cooler climate, the Dolcetto grown in this area is known to be “softer” with more rounded and complex fruit flavor and is considered to be where the “best” expression of this grape variety is grown.
