| Vinification |
The grapes are selected from the single vineyard Ravera in Novello, planted with roughly 4500 units per hectare. The vines have an average age of 27 years with the oldest part planted in 1935. Grapes are gently crushed and fermented for 4 weeks in stainless steel tank with skin contact. This time includes pre- and post- fermentative maceration with the traditional method of submerged cap. Malolactic fermentation is done in casks that will continue until late spring. The wine spends over a year on fine lees without racking it. The wine is aged for about 30 months in Slovenian oak casks. |
Ravera Barolo
TASTING NOTES
Intense garnet red color. Very classic and traditional with a robust structure and intense tannins. Bouquet takes a little time to show itself with slight hints of yeast. It opens slowly in the glass touch of spice and menthol. In the final, the powerful structure and concentration soften the tannins potential.
PAIRING
Vietti’s Barolo Ravera magically approaches important preparations based on red meat, goulash, beef stroganoff or braised in red wine. Also excellent with ground dishes and aged cheeses.
