Description: In the beginning of the 1960s, Giuseppe Rivetti, nicknamed ‘Pin’, and his wife, Lidia, were both expert and dedicated farmers with enormous appreciation and knowledge for tradition while keeping a curious interest in the future. Giorgio Rivetti, owner and next generation winemaker of La Spinetta is a leading force in Piedmonte. He produces approachable yet age-worthy wines that command the attention of wine critics and consumers alike, year-in and year-out; their lushness, concentration, aromatics and length are unrivaled. The winery has attained the coveted "Tre Bicchieri award" for more than 30 of their wines throughout their relatively short career. Vineyards sit on calcareous soil with south facing exposure 280 meters above sea level. Medium toasted French oak for 24 months. An additional 12 months in bottle before release.
