Wine Expert Note:

This wine is a remarkable example of a Barbaresco from the renowned producer Dante Rivetti. The Bricco Riserva designation indicates that this wine has been aged for an extended period, resulting in a more complex and refined flavor profile. On the nose, expect enticing aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by floral notes of violets and roses. These delicate scents are complemented by hints of spice, such as cinnamon and cloves, adding depth and intrigue. The palate is equally impressive, with a harmonious balance between fruit, acidity, and tannins. The ripe red fruits from the nose carry through, accompanied by flavors of blackberries and plums. The wine's structure is enhanced by well-integrated tannins, providing a smooth and velvety mouthfeel. With its medium to full body, Dante Rivetti Bricco Riserva Barbaresco offers a long and elegant finish, leaving a lingering impression of fruit and spice on the palate. This wine is a perfect choice for those seeking a sophisticated and well-crafted Barbaresco that showcases the unique terroir of the region.
