Luigi Baudana and his wife Florina, after their period at the Enoteca Regionale in Grinzane, have decided to devote themselves full-time to the family estate, consisting of four and a half hectares in the Baudana vineyard. Two and a half of these are planted to dolcetto and the rest are divided between nebbiolo, barbera and chardonnay; this is because, until about ten years ago, for a small farm with few commercial outlets, dolcetto was more profitable than other varieties. The upshot is that Luigi’s Dolcetto annually earns a place among the best of the area. According to the Wine Spectator: "Racy, with almost sharp grapey character, bright acidity and a crisp finish. Needs food. Drink now. 350 cases made." (Web only, 2007)
