Description
The Dogliani Pianezzo Boschis is made of 100% Dolcetto grape. The soil predominates of calcareous form and the harvest is manual starting the third week of September. The Dogliani Pianezzo Boschis is matured for 10 months in stainless steel and periodically decanted.The name Dogliani is held to be a mutation of Dolium Jani, meaning ‘the wine jar of Janus’. This follows a legend that the Roman god Janus visited the town to try its wines, stored in those days in earthenware dolia (wine jars). Another possible etymology points to the fact that Dogliani’s soft, Dolcetto-based wines were traditionally ready for drinking well before tannic Nebbiolos from neighbouring villages, perhaps even as early as the January (Janus’ month) after vintage.
