Barolo, Ravera, 2013
Bold, open and highly-charged. Open, juicy and velvety flavours, full and voluminous dark berry and blueberry fruit with seductive floral violet notes. Big but smoothly textured, an extrovert. A south, southwest facing parcel in the Novello commune. The tendency of the resulting wine is more towards power and volume and as such the Vietti's prefer to harness this strength by ageing it in large old casks only, whereas the other crus also spend some time in smaller barrels.
critic reviews
The 2013 Barolo Ravera is a real stunner. An exceptional, brilliant wine, the 2013 Barolo Ravera possesses breathtaking aromatics, translucent fruit and energy to burn. In 2013, the Ravera is dark and brooding, with fabulous intensity and the linear, focused precision that is the signature of this site in Novello. I have tasted and followed the 2013 Ravera for a number of years. It has never been anything less than thrilling. It is all that and more today. Readers who can find the 2013 should not hesitate, as it is tremendous.
