Balancing the spicy note of the Jerk calls on wines with a slightly sweet note. Hence we are going for a delicious and moreish dolcetto, literally the sweet little one in Italian. Its notes of cocoa and coffee, along with fine-grained tannins and structure, will entice the dish spiciness.
An elegant and fresh expression of Dolcetto, this wine embodies the style and ethos of Le Strette: to let the grapes and terroir of Piedmont speak for themselves. A layer of gentle floral notes floats over the core of red berries (redcurrants, wild strawberries) and bramble. Overtones of cocoa and coffee, along with the fine-grained tannins and structure, give it a very classical back palate and finish.
