Tasting note
Briccolina is a biodynamically farmed cru vineyard. It is a bright ruby red, gentle bouquet of flowers and spices. The palate is dry and elegant with good structure for long ageing and delicate tannins.

The producer
Enrico Rivetto
Serralunga d’Alba · Barolo, PiedmontFounded 190215–20 ha of vineyardrivetto.it
Rivetto has made wine since 1902 and has farmed the Lirano hill between Serralunga d'Alba and Sinio since 1938. Fourth-generation Enrico Rivetto took over full-time in 1999, converted the estate to organic farming and then biodynamics, planting over a thousand trees, biological corridors, beehives and keeping donkeys for manure. In 2020 Rivetto became the first Demeter-certified estate in the Barolo and Barbaresco zones.
