Ravera Barolo DOCG riserva
In 2013, the collaboration with the Cravero family from Barolo granted us the rent of this splendid vineyard characterized by white marls and an exposition in the midday sun. Its uniqueness prompted us to bottle it individually despite renting. The fortune of having begun its cultivation in the splendid and long-lived 2013 vintage made us immediately aware of the potential, the limits and the facets of this particular cru of the municipality of Barolo. It should be remembered that a small part of the grapes is part of the historic label Buon Padre.
