Barbaresco "Nervo" DOCG 2020 - Rizzi

Deep garnet red with orangey highlights. Very elegant nose with notes of red berries, fruits of the forest and leather, with a spicy finish reminiscent of cinnamon and liquorice. Tight tannin in the mouth accompanies a long, mineral flavour which develops into fruity, earthy notes.

Perfect to accompany braised meats and game, or mature cheeses like Pecorino Romano and Parmigiano Reggiano.

One of the estate's single-vineyard wines, grown on steep slopes which favour exposure to the sun and the ripening of the grapes. After macerating for 20 days, "Fondetta" undergoes a long period of ageing, initially spending at least a year in oak barrels and then another year in concrete or stainless steel tanks. Elegant, particularly when eight years have elapsed since harvesting. The gentle soul of Barbaresco.
