Barbaresco Rizzi

Medium

Cork

Riserva

At the top of the Rizzi MGA, the southwest-facing Boito vineyard is characterised by clay-rich limestone marls. It is vinified separately every vintage, and winemaker Enrico Dellapiana paints a unique label for each. Explosively fragrant, the 2021 bursts with violet, mint, cedar and nutmeg. Still youthful and tight, the palate is much more restrained in its expression. Hints of pepper lace through the tart berry backdrop. Elegantly weighted, it is sneaky in concentration and sinewy in muscles. Chalky tannins wield measured power. Smartly assembled.
