Barbaresco BRIC MICCA DOCG 2020 DANTE RIVETTI

The Barbaresco BRIC MICCA DOCG 2020 from Cantina Dante Rivetti is a wine of extraordinary elegance born from pure Nebbiolo grapes from the Bric Micca vineyard, near Neive. The red grapes are gently destemmed and pressed, and fermentation takes place strictly at a controlled temperature, with frequent reassemblies. The Barberesco thus refines for 24 months between large Slavonian barrels and French oak barriques, with a further 12 months in the bottle.
