Ormeasco is the local name for Dolcetto, giving Pornassio a different red-wine identity from nearby Rossese. The DOC includes red wines and Sciac-trà, a rosé. That pink wine is distinct from the sweet white Cinque Terre Sciacchetrà on the opposite side of Liguria. Compare wine type and ageing to explore a fresh local expression or a more developed red.
