Description

The 2021 Ruggeri Corsini Dolcetto d'Alba comes from the heart of the Langhe, crafted by the passionate husband-and-wife team Loredana Addari and Nicola Argamante. Since leaving their city lives behind in 1994 to pursue their dream, they’ve been producing soulful, terroir-driven wines from their small, family-run estate in Monforte d’Alba—a village steeped in history and nestled within the vineyard landscapes of the Piedmont UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This Dolcetto d’Alba offers a lively, bright expression of the variety, with vibrant notes of red cherries, wild berries, and a hint of spice. Aged to retain its fresh, juicy character, the wine delivers a smooth, supple texture and just enough tannic grip to keep it structured without being overly heavy. With balanced acidity and an alcohol content of 14.3%, it’s a perfect example of Dolcetto’s easygoing charm.

Whether you’re pairing it with pizza, pasta, or enjoying it on its own, this wine captures the essence of Piedmont: approachable, food-friendly, and full of character. Ready to drink now, the 2021 Ruggeri Corsini Dolcetto d'Alba is a delightful representation of the passion and expertise that Loredana and Nicola bring to every bottle, making their dream a delicious reality.

"All Monforte fruit here from a special vintage.  The vines lay between 430-480m in Monforte.  Ruggeri Corsini take their Dolcetto production very seriously & have great pride in its release each year.  And whilst the job of Dolcetto is to drink with gusto (rather than admire like Nebbiolo), this is another very complex & impressive release. Raised only in stainless steel this is all about the fruit – and terrifically pure fruit at that."

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
