The 2019 Famiglia Rivetti Barolo offers an inviting bouquet of red cherries, violets, and dried rose petals, with undertones of tobacco, leather, and earthy truffle. On the palate, it reveals a firm structure, with refined tannins and vibrant acidity that frame flavors of dark berries, licorice, and a touch of spice. The finish is long and elegant, showcasing the wine’s balance and aging potential.
This Barolo is made from 100% Nebbiolo, sourced from carefully selected vineyards in the heart of Piedmont’s famous Barolo region. Known for its power and complexity, this 2019 vintage captures the essence of Barolo with its layered aromas and flavors. The wine is aged in large oak casks for at least two years, softening the tannins and allowing the wine’s inherent elegance to emerge. Barolo’s hallmark acidity and structure make it a superb match for rich dishes like braised meats, truffle risotto, or aged cheeses, and it will continue to develop beautifully in the bottle for many years.
Garnet color. Aromas and flavors of fennel and baking spice, black cherry, incense and roses, clove, leather, and and pipe tobacco with a round, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, elegant, long finish with shades of black cherry, leather and pipe tobacco, dried rose and herbs, clove, mushrooms, and and black tea with grippy, coating, drying tannins and moderate oak flavor. Classic and delicious with dark flavors packed into a medium-bodied wine, albeit a bit tight right now; could use a couple hours decant or a few years in cellar to unfurl.
