I think I can offer some wisdom here as I have had several race boots now.
Size I bounce between a 42-43 between Dainese, Spidi xpd & A-stars.
The comfort level is decent. for a boot and the best out of the three brands IMO.
Protection
The XPD series boot in similar price range will offer the same protection. like the xp7
Where the dainese has the advantage is the ankle lateral support.
The boot is low profile and therefore is very stylish light and will appeal to those who want to wear it on the street.
B/c of the low profile i was concerned about the toe box being so small. I guess I am used to bigger boxes that allows room for crush protection.
The air flow is great by comparison to the aforementioned brands.
Good boot I think we are used to bigger more material boots so it does look flimsy to start. However in a crunch I think it will perform it's job.
Yes, I recommend this product.

How high are these boots? I have big calf's and have trouble with the fit of taller boots. How about these boots for fit?
They have an adjustment at the sides that allow for bigger calves. Basically a set it and forget it feature

 Alpinestars Articolo 76 Alto Gore-Tex Boots (46)
Alpinestars Articolo 76 Alto Gore-Tex Boots (46)
Alpinestars Articolo 76 Alto Gore-Tex Boots A streamlined integration of the past and the present, the Articolo 76 combines the original 1979 Oscar-winning upper design with modern performance protection. Colored as if taken directly from the old black and white catalogues, the front facing stripes are a sophisticated grey-scale version of the original Italian red, white and green. Features Premium materials and state-of-the-art craftsmanship Supple full-grain Italian leather TPU protection on the toe and heel are designed to dissipate impact energy across the foot The heel protection, only partly visible, is molded with multiple densities of TPU to give proper protection, support, and fit without sacrificing comfort Minimal sole reduces weight and maximizes flexibility, and the even tread pattern gives a more predictable grip Flag colors modified to match those in the original one-color catalogues Waterproof and breathable Gore-Tex lining with gusseted zipper
 

Will this boot be ok for a wide foot?

I doubt it. I have a narrow foot and it is just right for me
