Barolo Ravera

Full

Cork

Wonderful intensity and purity of red plum and strawberry aromas are judiciously spiced with cinnamon and star anise. This is full and enveloping, with ripe, well-knit tannins giving decisive shape to the fruit while simultaneously caressing the palate. There's sufficient crisp acidity to counter its girth, and this will charm right out of the gate. Barolo is a relatively new venture for this Diano-based estate. The approach has been fine-tuned, with the Ravera now ageing primarily in 30-hectolitre casks rather than tonneaux. The 2022 edition also saw a significant reduction in post-fermentation maceration to avoid over-extracting.
