Babaresco
One of the supreme, yet more delicate version, of the great Piedmont wines from the Nebbiolo grape, our Rive Leone Barbaresco expresses complex earth and spice with a core of tart cherry fruit and rose petals.
Soil
Calcareous marls
Tasting notes
Its medium-garnet with a presence of a brick rim foreshadows the complex fruit, rose petal, earth and spice of the aroma. The palate is well framed and balanced with a viscous texture leading to a long complex finish.
Food pairings
Exceptionally paired with northern Italian cuisine, especially Fettuccini ai Funghi, roasted meats, aged cheeses and risotto.
