The Story

This Barolo from the Rocche Rivera vineyard offers layered aromas of red cherry, dried rose, violet, and sweet spice, with hints of tobacco, tar, and earthy complexity. The palate is full-bodied and structured, delivering vibrant red fruit alongside savory depth and refined minerality. Firm, well-integrated tannins provide grip and aging potential, while balanced acidity maintains freshness. The finish is long and persistent, showcasing elegance, spice, and classic Nebbiolo character. 

Food Pairing: Braised beef, lamb, truffle dishes, osso buco, mushroom risotto, aged cheeses, and traditional Italian cuisine.

 

96 Points - James Suckling

Aromas of pine needles, black tea and dark spices with the plums and berries. Full-bodied, tight and very focused with dense fruit balance and a fresh, vibrant finish. Still a little shy, but already showing greatness. Try in 2021.


96 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Red berry, new leather, rose, balsamic aromas of menthol and dark cooking spice are just some of the aromas you'll find on this gorgeous red. Balanced and structured, the elegant palate shows succulent Marasca cherry, strawberry, licorice and tobacco framed in firm refined tannins and vibrant acidity. A salty mineral note lingers on the finish. Drink 2021–2038.
