No current retailer offer matches that combination.
Stock status is read from each retailer’s page several times a week and may lag.
Dezzani links this wine's concentrated aromas to a yield cut by as much as half. The grapes are Dolcetto and Barbera, the main grapes of the Monferrato tradition.
Shining ruby red, with an intense, complex nose of red fruit and spice from Dolcetto and Barbera. Cherry and raspberry come first, then plum, raisin and fig.

ChocolateFull and velvety, with red fruit to the fore and a very harmonious feel. A touch of chocolate and leather sits behind the fruit. The grapes are left to dry on the vine and are usually picked between the end of October and early November.
The finish keeps the full, velvety and very harmonious feel of the palate.
A full, velvety red to sip slowly on its own, as Dezzani suggests, or to open with game, aged cheese or dark chocolate. Drinkers rate it well and mention red fruit most often. The producer gives it ten years from the harvest, so the 2023 keeps until 2033.
The one shop on this page sells the 2023 by the case of six, at £14.68 a bottle, VAT included, so there is no price to compare here.
Best with food is its strongest card, and Best intro to this style comes next.

Dezzani made its first vintage of this wine in 2014. The 2023 on sale here does not have enough drinker ratings yet for a score of its own.
The 2023 is the vintage on sale here, and it is ready to drink now. It should keep until 2033.

Drink-now / hold guidance reflects general style cues for this wine, not a forecast for a specific bottle. Where vintage-level editorial notes exist, they appear above.
Dezzani names it Piemonte DOC Rosso Passito and files it in its Dezzani Selection range. Its sheet says the DOC sets strict checks on yields and on grape quality.
Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.
Piemonte is in the DOC tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.
Piemonte falls within Piedmont.

Dezzani's sheet says the official yield is cut by up to 50% for this wine. Each hectare then gives as little as half the crop the rules allow, so fewer bottles share its costs.
The grapes stay on the vine to dry until a late harvest, usually between the end of October and early November. Drying concentrates the sugars and flavours, which means fewer litres of juice from the same grapes.
Of a £14.68 bottle, about £5.66 is tax: duty of about £3.22 at 14% alcohol and VAT of about £2.45.
Dezzani's sheet says the Piemonte DOC sets strict checks on yields per hectare and on grape quality. Each hectare may give only so much wine under those rules.
Dezzani's own list is short: aged cheeses, game and dark chocolate. It also calls this a great wine to sip slowly on its own.
Game is on Dezzani's own list. This full, velvety Piemonte red of Dolcetto and Barbera has the depth to meet venison and pheasant. Its red fruit and spice sit well with the rich, dark meat.
Try with: Venison Stew · Roast Pheasant · Roast Duck · More pairings →
Dezzani suggests aged cheeses. The salt and savoury depth of a mature cheese meet a full, velvety Dolcetto and Barbera red. Its red fruit freshens each bite.
Try with: Strong cheddar cheese · Cheese board · Parmigiano Reggiano · Aged pecorino
Dark chocolate is on the producer's own list. The red fruit and spice of this Piemonte Rosso Passito bridge to the cocoa. The velvety texture matches the chocolate's smooth melt.
Try with: Dark chocolate · Dark chocolate truffles · Salted dark chocolate
A full Dolcetto and Barbera red needs a dish with weight. Braised beef or a lamb shank gives it that. The wine's red fruit and spice lift the deep, savoury sauce.
Try with: Brasato al Barolo · Lamb shank · Beef stew
Chilli heat fights a full, 14% red like this Piemonte Dolcetto and Barbera. The burn grows and the red fruit goes flat. Keep fiery dishes for another bottle.

Dezzani gives this wine ten years from the harvest, so the 2023 should keep until about 2033. It has a natural cork, so store the bottle lying down somewhere cool and dark.
