Hand harvested from the best cru vineyards including: Castiglione Falletto, La Morra, Monforte d'Alba, & Serralunga, then aged over three years prior to release. For the price the Arnaldo Rivera Barolo is one of the finest we've tasted and a relative steal for $29.99 a bottle. Such finesse, structure and terroir-driven character, you'd expect to pay three times the price. Don't miss one of the the best values in Italy!
"Expressive, this boasts pure cherry, strawberry, rose and anise flavors. Elegant, turning more structured as this winds down on the vibrant finish. Gains complexity from tar and wild herb details. Best from 2026 through 2043. 4,200 cases made, 1,650 cases imported." The Wine Spectator, 93 Points
"As its name suggests, the Arnaldo Rivera 2019 Barolo Undicicomuni is a blend of Nebbiolo from many of the 11 villages that make up the appellation. This is a co-op winery that enjoys incredible access to vineyard sites, and no other winery could manage a blend this ambitious. With 50,000 bottles made (and sold at a good value price), the wine offers classic varietal tones of wild berry, dark fruit, violet, tar and licorice. The tannins are already quite integrated, and this Barolo boasts an accessible side. It will be released this fall. The oak regime is reduced to 26 months (instead of 32 months) in the case of this wine, and you get more easy fruit as a result. Drink 2024-2038" The Wine Advocate, 93 Points
