In this tasting, part of our series of events at the Potami shop in St Martin V\u00e9subie, we explored the wines of Dolceacqua. Historically part of the same region as the wines from Bellet and the Cont\u00e9 de Nice.<\/p>\n

A difficult choice over which wines to show, in the end I stayed with the wines from two estates: Terre Bianche and Maccario-Dringenberg to illustrate both the range of wines made and the diversity of the different crus from the two valleys.<\/p>\n

  • Classico 2012, Terre Bianche<\/li>\n
  • Classico 2012, Maccario-Dringenberg<\/li>\n
  • Bricco Arcagna \u00a02011\u00a0Superiore<\/span>, Terre Bianche<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Luvaira 2010 Superiore, Maccario-Dringenberg<\/li>\n
  • Posau 2010 Superiore, Maccario-Dringenberg<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    It was particularly interesting to see how no one wine was a clear favourite. The tasters found it very challenging \u00a0to try seven different wines (including one ros\u00e9) made from the same variety. Some preferred the fresh fruit of the Classico wines, others the greater richness of the Superiore wines.<\/p>\n
