Luigi Oddero Barolo Rocche Rivera 2021

This Barolo from the Rocche Rivera vineyard shows expressive aromas of red cherry, raspberry, rose petals, and violet, layered with hints of spice, tobacco, and subtle earth. The palate is full-bodied and structured, delivering vibrant red fruit with mineral depth and refined complexity. Firm, finely integrated tannins provide structure and aging potential, while bright acidity adds freshness and balance. The finish is long and persistent, marked by floral lift, spice, and classic Nebbiolo elegance. 

Food Pairing: Braised beef, lamb, truffle dishes, osso buco, mushroom risotto, aged cheeses, and traditional Italian cuisine.
