Información sobre este vino:
Borgogno Rivata Nebbiolo is a red wine of Borgogno Rivata, a winery from Piedmont that works with the noble, almost aristocratic character of Nebbiolo. In this interpretation, the grape expresses that unmistakable blend of severity and perfume—almost as if it were wearing an impeccable suit over a deeply emotional heart. This is not a wine that tries to dazzle through excess, but to seduce with precision, with the refinement only reds that know how to wait can possess.
Its character harks back to the tradition of the Langa hills, where Nebbiolo finds a setting of clear light, early mist, and an almost musical tension between fragility and power. The house Borgogno Rivata often gives its wines an elegant, artisanal reading, and in this case the result moves between classic structure and a certain contemporary freshness, like an old poem recited with modern diction.
In short, it’s a red wine of serious soul—one of those that prefer depth over haste and finesse over grandiloquence. Its profile suggests a style of medium to full body, with the inevitable imprint of a wine with character: noble in form and persistent in memory.

Bright ruby-red color, with garnet highlights that reveal Nebbiolo’s lineage and a certain aptitude for aging.
On the nose it shows an elegant, spiced profile, with hints of ripe red fruit, cherry, dry petals, and a background of fine herbs. Subtle touches of licorice appear, along with noble wood and a slight earthy echo—very Piedmontese.
On the palate it’s dry, refined, and delivered in a straight, vertical line, with firm but polished tannins. Acidity adds drive and length, while the fruit comes together with a delicacy that’s almost silky. Its structure is precise—more architecture than volume—and it leaves a long, seriously perfumed finish, with persistence reminiscent of the echo of a well-ventilated stone room.
Medium to full body, with a tense yet enveloping texture that gains presence as the wine breathes.
Elegant, defined structure, with a lively acidity, fine tannins, and a very well-built sense of balance—almost classic.
Long, dry, and distinguished finish, with persistent red fruit, spices, and a sober mineral trace.
It comes from Piemonte, in the world of the Langhe hills, where Nebbiolo finds its most expressive home. The terroir delivers that highly recognizable combination of elegance, tension, and a minerality that seems to emerge from the stone itself.
Careful vinification, with an artisanal approach and attention to extraction to preserve the fineness of the Nebbiolo. It often features aging or refinement that aims to integrate tannin and perfume without quenching the varietal identity.
Serve at 16–18 ºC, preferably with a bit of prior aeration so it can unfold its aromatic range with greater breadth.
