Vietti Barolo Ravera

Region: Barolo, Piemonte, Italy

Vintage: 2018

Bottle size: 75cl

Grape: Nebbiolo

ABV: 14.5%

Intense garnet-red color. The nose, stark at the beginning, reveals complex floral notes that emerge after a few minutes. Striking notes include red fruit, chalk and white pepper. Fine on the palate, with hints of ripe red berries. The taught, compact tannins make this a very classic wine. The acidity is vibrant and vertical. Very elegant and refined.

The grapes come from the famous MGA “Ravera'' vineyard located in the municipality of Novello. Limestone and clay-rich soil with Marls of Sant'Agata. Ravera di Novello is a fabulous hillside vineyard with a western/south-western exposure. Altitude around 400 m asl; the average age of the vines is 34 years and there is a density of around 4.500 plants per hectare. The oldest part was planted in 1935.

It was the end of the 1800s when Carlo Vietti created the Vietti winery in the heart of the Langhe, on the highest point of the medieval village of Castiglione Falletto, in the very same place where it is located today
