Old vineyards planted on clayey, calcareous soil. The first 24 months of maturing – mostly in big Slavonian oak casks with a small lot in small barrels made of French oak – are followed by a further 12 months in large casks, giving a total of three years of ageing. An additional 18 months in the bottle make it earn the ‘reserve’ label. This
is the Barbaresco Bricco di Neive Riserva recipe according to the Rivetti family: expansive and aristocratic on the mouth, with extraordinary length and very refined tannins.

 

A great wine for life’s big moments. If a serving suggestion is absolutely necessary, try uncorking it alongside a roast duck that has just ‘happened’ to swallow a little black truffle before being put in the oven.
