Barolo Ravera is a deep and extremely complex wine, as well as balanced and elegant. The aromas are spicy, with floral notes, red and black fruit, tobacco. In the mouth the acidity is always alive, while the body is deep, with a dense, persistent but velvety tannic texture.

Via Nuova was the name of a small vineyard located close to the inhabited center of Barolo. Its name derives from the proximity to the road (new, in the last century) that connected Barolo to Novello. Of that road today only a path remains in the middle of the vineyards, which can be covered on foot. For years it was vinified in purity until the Municipality of Barolo, by reorganizing the...

Made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes, gattinara has long been considered the younger brother of the most renowned Langa wines. With the acquisition of the Nervi company by Roberto Conterno, perception has rightly changed and is now considered a great wine, powerful and elegant, with great aging potential.

”The 2017 Barolo Ravera is gorgeous right out of the gate. Rose petal, sweet red berry fruit, lavender, spice and dried herbs are all finely delineated in a Barolo of tremendous presence. Orange peel, cinnamon and cedar develop later, adding shades of dimension. The 2017 is going to be fascinating to follow. Today, it is just breathtaking. That’s all there is to it.” A. Galloni, Vinous.

"The 2018 Barolo Ravera is a powerful, tightly wound wine. Gravel, smoke, cured meats, spice, leather, tobacco and menthol emerge, but only with quite a bit of reticence. This deceptively mid-weight Barolo has a good bit of brawn. It will be interesting to see if the fruit emerges from behind the tannins." Antonio Galloni

In the mouth it is velvety ample and fills up with sweet and lasting tannins. The great polyphenolic structure of Nebbiolo and the right acid tannic balance of this wine are synonyms of long lasting wine.

The 2019 Barolo Bricco Boschis is laced with dried red cherry fruit, spice and strong savory accents. I find the flavors a bit dried out and the tannins overpowering, both of which penalize the wine's balance.

"The 2019 Barbaresco Vanotu is laced with ripe dark cherry, plum, spice, mocha and espresso. In this vintage, the Vanotu is a bit light in structure, which seems to accentuate the oak imprint. It will be interesting to see how this ages. Perhaps there is more depth than what is coming through at the moment." Antonio Galloni - Vinous

Elegant and fine Nebbiolo, typical of the sandy soils on which it is born, the Valmaggiore is a true pillar in its category. To be taken as an example for all lovers of this noble vine.
