Rizzi Barbaresco Rizzi 2017
The Barbaresco wine is produced from Nebbiolo grapes harvested in the Crü Rizzi. The Rizzi Cru is extensive, so it is not surprise that within it, there are substantial variations for characteristic of the soil, exposure and altitude. It’s for this that our Barbaresco is so particular, and the Rizzi hill is incontestably one of the most famous in the Langhe area.

Colour

Garnet with orange reflections typical of Nebbiolo.

Bouquet

The nose has a fragrant and crisp aroma, with hints of red fruits and flavors of berries, and herbs, with floral and spicy notes.
