Rivetti’s 2001 Barbaresco Bricco Riserva shows lovely density and richness as layers of dark fruit, spices, menthol and toasted oak gradually emerge. The wine possesses outstanding depth and a long, resonating finish that lingers on the palate. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2021.
Dante Rivetti is based in Bricco di Neive, a section of town that is renowned for yielding powerful Barbarescos.
