Rivetto Organic Langhe Nebbiolo DOC 2022

$54.99

Organic – Biodynamic

The Rivetto Langhe Nebbiolo is an elegant Italian red wine produced by the Rivetto family in the Langhe region of Piedmont, Italy. This wine showcases the finesse of the Nebbiolo grape, which is famous for producing some of Italy’s most prestigious wines, such as Barolo and Barbaresco, but with a fresher and more approachable profile.

The nose is fresh and floral, with notes of wild cherries, red berries, violets, and subtle hints of spices, such as black pepper and licorice. The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins and lively acidity. Flavors of ripe raspberries, cherries, and earthy undertones are complemented by a touch of minerality. The finish is smooth and refreshing, with a lingering fruit-forward character.

Characteristics:
 An extremely pleasing and drinkable wine, and although it has a high alcohol grade this never overpowers its fruity character.  Its red colour has Bordeaux reflections and the slow trickle from the edge of the glass confirms its optimal concentration and good body. The palate is caressed by a smooth tannin content typical of the Nebbiolo grape and by a warm and enveloping flavour.

16°C

Pairing: ham and salami, vitello tonnato, tajarin and ravioli, white meats.
