This barolo, one of the great Italian reds, is the perfect emblem of a fantastic vintage, the 2000. Extremely clean and fresh, with tar and berry aromas, a full bodied palate with fine tannins and an elegant finish. This barolo Rivetto has won several national and international awards and it has received 4 stars from Decanter in a barolo tasting

Borolo to rival Bordeaux, by 1magpie 01 Aug 22:48
If tradittionally Bordeaux has complexity and balance of tannins and acids in abundance then this Borolo would fare well with many Bordeaux even from the right bank. Yes there are berrys on the palate but the dry drench on the is not dissimilar to cherry and Kirch leaving one yearning for yet another mouthfull of a quite exquisite wine yet not from the right bank of Bordeaux but the foot of the mountain (piedmont). Quite simply delightful looking forward to the next bottle already
