Rivetto Barolo ’Serralunga’ 2019/202059. 95 per bottle ABV 14. 5% Tasting Notes Serralunga is one of the most famous vineyard sites of Barolo, where the Nebbiolo vines enjoy perfect south east facing exposure on chalky soils. This intense, full bodied red has a wonderful scent of violets and roses. It is harmoniously balanced, rich with tar and plum flavours held by firm tannins, powerful yet never aggressive. The palate captures the tipicity of the site with mineral, herb and mint
