Wine Searcher review
Vietti “Ravera” Barolo DOCG 2021 is an exceptional single-vineyard (MGA – Menzione Geografica Aggiuntiva) Barolo crafted from 100% Nebbiolo grapes grown in the renowned Ravera vineyard in the commune of Novello, Piedmont. This celebrated site is characterised by limestone and clay soils, producing wines of remarkable structure, elegance, and pronounced minerality. The 2021 vintage is widely regarded as one of the finest in recent years for Barolo, combining concentrated fruit, vibrant acidity, and beautifully refined tannins. Traditional ageing in large oak casks allows the Ravera terroir to shine, creating a Barolo with outstanding complexity and the potential to evolve gracefully for decades.
The bouquet reveals red cherry, wild berries, and rose petal aromas layered with licorice, tar, dried herbs, orange zest, tobacco, and crushed stone nuances. Full-bodied, concentrated, and beautifully structured on the palate, the wine displays fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity, and an exceptionally long mineral finish.
Perfect with beef tenderloin, slow-roasted lamb, game, truffle risotto, wild mushroom dishes, and long-aged cheeses. Its depth, structure, and elegance make it an exceptional companion to fine dining and memorable occasions.
