Robert Parker, Jr.-The Wine Advocate:  Rated as An outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character.  "The 2009 Dolcetto d-Alba Vigna Scot flows with gorgeous dark fruit, licorice and underbrush. As always, this is a beautiful, supple Dolcetto with superb purity in its fruit, beautifully articulated aromatics and terrific overall balance. It is highly recommended. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2014.
It's tough to go wrong with pretty much anything from Cavallotto these days. The estate's entry-level wines offer nearly as much pleasure as the higher-end wines, but at far more soothing prices." Dec 2010

Winery:   "Ruby red at the core with intense purple reflections, this Dolcetto is intense and fruity on the nose, with delicious aromas of wild berries, cherries, red apple, and a slight bitter almond note. Dry and full-bodied on the palate, the Vigna Scot is warm and soft in the mouth, delightfully well balanced."
