Description

A quite thrilling and utterly extraordinary Nebbiolo d'Alba from the brilliant Enrico Rivetto. The Nebbiolo vines grow on the Lirano hill at Sinio at an altitude 400m with exposure to the west on calcareous clay soils - on the border of Barolo. The grapes are manually harvested late September, destalked and fermented naturally in Amphora with its wild, indigenous yeasts. The wine macerates in these terracotta containers for a very long time. The wine has great energy and tension, it is extraordinarily elegant and wonderfully complex too. A neo-classical marvel of a wine.

Enrico has dediCôted this wine to the hill where he lives and grows. It's an absolutely extraordinary offering that regularly gets scored in the mid-to high nineties in the American journals: 94/100 in Wine Enthusiast for this 2021, 96/100 WE and 96/100 in Wine Spectator for the 2019, 95/100 in WE for the 2017 etc, etc.

An absolute, slept-on beauty that we are very proud to bring to the UK.

"This beautiful Nebbiolo is a perfect meld of high-toned red fruits and savory earth flavors all at once. The wine envelops you with notes of sour cherry, violets, dark earth and thyme. The elegant palate is generous with its raspberry, allspice and oolong tea flavors that give way to persistent minerality on the fine and polished finish. Drink now - 2035".

Jeff Porter in Wine Enthusiast 94/100
