- Dolcetto d’Alba DOC is located in the Piedmont region of northwestern Italy. It encompasses the vineyards around the town of Alba, as well as several neighboring areas.
- The Dolcetto grape is often grown in the lower hills and cooler sites of the Langhe region, where Nebbiolo and Barbera might not ripen as well. This strategic use of land maximizes the potential of different grape varieties in the region.
