The Mengler 2017 Dolcetto has classic flavors of this famous Italian varietal that is originally from the Piedmont region. Despite the literal translation of its name to be 'little sweetie' (like a small piece of candy), this wine is completely dry and has fantastic acidity and bright fruit flavors that make it an extremely versatile wine. Deep garnet in color, the Mengler 2017 Dolcetto offers notes of black plum, pomegranate, and licorice with hints of white pepper that lead into a long finish. Enjoy!

Crab Cakes with a Lemon Aioli

These succulent, meaty crab cakes are a must-try! Especially when served with the lemon aioli sauce and a nice glass of Santerra Cellars 2001 Dolcetto we featured in our Gold Wine of the Month Club. This is an awesome pairing.
