Vietti Barolo Ravera 2015

From grapes from the single Ravera vineyard located in the municipality of Novello, with approximately 4500 plants per hectare of 28 years of average age. The oldest part was planted in 1935. Ravera di Novello is a fabulous hill with south-west exposure, with calcareous-clayey soil and a surface area of ​​approximately 3 hectares. Following soft pressing, fermentation lasts approximately 4/5 weeks in a steel tank in contact with the skins. This time includes pre- and post-fermentation maceration using the ancient submerged cap method. Slow malolactic in barrel, until late spring. The wine then remains more than a year on the malolactic lees without racking.

Aging: 32 months in large oak barrels.

With an intense garnet red color. The nose, initially austere, recalls complex floral notes that open up in the glass as the minutes pass, with hints of red fruit, chalk and white pepper. On the palate it is fine with sensations of ripe red fruits. The taut and compact tannin makes the wine very classic. Vibrant and vertical acidity. Extremely elegant and refined.

We recommend decanting it a few hours before serving.
