Winery Enrico Rivetto
This Rivetto Leon Riserva Barolo from the beautiful (Barolo) year 2015 is Enrico's top model. After 5 years of maturation, the Barolo can be considered a "Riserva": according to Enrico, this Barolo Riserva is best after 15-22 years of maturation. The wine comes exclusively from barrels with a greater aging potential. It is a well-endowed expression of Nebbiolo offering beautiful fruit characteristics on both the nose and palate. Dried blackberries, plums and cassis are followed by grilled herbs, licorice and tar. This is a structured wine that is only made in the good years and is a jewel for the wine cellar.
