Rivetto Nebbiolo D' Alba Vigna Lirano
75cl
This Nebbiolo is a natural wine made by spontaneous fermentation in terracotta clay pots (amphorae). it is unfiltered and biodynamic, yet wonderfully vibrant and fruity. Notes of spices, berries and earthy notes combine beautifully with fine-grained tannins and freshness, that really expresses the pure characteristic of this grape variety.
