The Barolo doc “Ravera” of Vietti is produced with Nebbiolo grapes that come from the wine yard with the same name, situated in the Novello district. The Ravera cru of Novello is one of the hills which have the best sun exposition for the Barolo wine production. This Barolo has a classic and traditional style, with an intense ruby red color. Its bouquet is floreal and fruity, with chalk and white pepper notes. Elegant and fine wine, it has intense tannins. The Barolo Ravera is soft and persistent on the aftertaste and it is perfect if drunk with game, red meats and aging cheeses.
“The 2017 Barolo Ravera is a powerhouse. My impression is that the 2017 is going to develop into something truly special. It has all the energy that makes this site so distinctive, but with an extra kick of fruit density and a whole range of exotic aromatics that make for a truly drop dead gorgeous wine. Bright red/purplish fruit, rose petal, chalk and white pepper build into a finish laced with searing intensity. This is such an impressive wine”.
