Barolo DOCG Campe Giorgio Rivetti

The wine

2000 is the first vintage of this Barolo from the Grinzane Cavour municipality. (Cavour is the name of the Prime Minister to the very first king of Italy, Camillo Benso Conte di Cavour, who once owned vineyards in this region). This wine is powerful, meaty, with spicy and floral aromas. Malolactic fermentation is carried out in new French oak barrels. Ageing is carried out over 24 months in barrels followed by 9 months in stainless steel vats before resting for 12 months in bottles. The wine is neither filtered nor clarified, and is sold in the 4th year after harvest. It can be aged for 20 to 30 years.

Information about domain La Spinetta

A reputation acquired over a thirty-year period. La Spinetta was founded by Giuseppe and Lidia Rivetti in 1977 in the Moscato d'Asti region. But the Rivettis did not restrict themselves to producing delicious dessert wines. They swiftly diversified into red wines. In 2000, their dream of producing their first Barolo came true. They followed this up by buying vines in the Grinzane Cavour region and built a state-of-the-art cellar – Barolo Campe. In 2001, La Spinetta Campé extend beyond Piedmont with 65 hectares of Tuscan vines between Pisa and Volterra. Rivetti wines supplemented their range with 100% Sangiovese wines and definitively established the family's reputation as one of the leading winemaking families in Italy. All the bottle labels bear an engraving of a rhinoceros by Dürer, making them extremely easy to spot!
