Rivetto Barbaresco Marcarini 2016
Piedmont, ItalyYouthful, energetic, travelled Enrico Rivetto farms his family's estate with a philosophy beyond biodynamics, and towards complete biodiversity. From a single, south-east facing grey marl and sandy vineyard situated between Treiso and Barbaresco, planted at 350m, this nebbiolo was destemmed and deseeded before native fermentation and three weeks maceration in stainless steel tanks. The removal of the seeds is a unique process Enrico devised, resulting in a gentle silkiness to the elegant palate. Pale in hue with glints of orange, with wild strawberry raspberry, roses and fine, firm tannins to a gently haunting finish. Drinking beautifully now, but with time ahead.Tasted: 29 May 2019Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $66.95 | 750ml | consignment |
