Rivetto Nebbiolo d'Alba Lirano Serralunga d'Alba 2023 | Rivetto Nebbiolo D Alba
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 clay-limestone 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 dedicated 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 if that's your thing: 94/100 in Wine Enthusiast for the 2021 96/100 WE and 96/100 in Wine Spectator for the 2019 95/100 in WE for the 2017 etc etc. "Lustrous mid ruby. Serious and slowly opening up. Lots of minerals and subdued fine cherry fruit. Lush cool yet ripe perfumed red fruit with long sandy tannins. Great balance and length and very fine". 17.5/20 Walter Speller on jancisrobinson.com July 2025 "Vibrantly intense and vividly pure this must-try pick gushes with crushed raspberry candied violet and fragrant wild herbs. It feels as light as a feather yet crams in buckets of red berries with an evocative undertow of baked earth and stony minerals. Gorgeously fluid and energetic it flows seamlessly dispersing suede-like tannins all over the mouth. Absolutely moreish! Enrico Rivetto chooses the more restrictive Nebbiolo d'Alba denomination to distinguish this amphora-aged version from his more classically crafted Langhe Nebbiolo. It spends a full six months on skins and is bottled with less than 60ppm of SO2". 93/100 Michalela Morris Decanter Magazine June 2025 An absolute slept-on beauty that we are very proud to bring to the UK.
