Description
What kind of wine it is
The Barolo Ravera by Piero Benevelli is a still red wine from Piedmont made from Nebbiolo grapes from the Langhe. In the glass, it displays a bright garnet red colour, enhanced by elegant orange highlights. The bouquet offers clear aromas of dried rose and cherry, which harmoniously intertwine with fine spices and a fresh balsamic note. On the palate, it reveals itself as structured and deep, supported by a dense tannin that is excellently integrated. The taste is characterised by a pronounced savoury tension that accompanies the sip towards a long and persistent finish, with a distinct territorial imprint.

The influence of the terroir is evident in the perfect correspondence between the aromatic complexity and the gustatory persistence, defining a taut, rigorous sip that is deeply faithful to its area of origin.
