Review Date: 09/2023The 2019 Barolo Ravera is beautiful with floral and spice perfume and offers a Burgundian aesthetic, with notes of apricot and wet stone. It is medium-bodied, highly refined, and pure, with complexity that continues to evolve in the glass, revealing notes of rhubarb, apricot, wild raspberry, and dusty earth. A beautiful and expressive wine with a lot of grace, it is going to drink well at a lot of stages, so don't worry about whether to drink it soon or forget about it in the cellar over the next two decades. 96+ (AF)

Tannins are sheer and long with a steely and muscular nature, yet they are nicely integrated. Full and toned. This is a wine for the cellar yet it already shows pretty floral and blue fruit character. Drink after 2029.

Using two clones of 70- to 80-year-old Nebbiolo on calcareous soil in the distinguished MGA of Ravera, this 2019 has incredible energy. Delicate red fruits accompany earthy depths and balsamic lift, while in the mouth grippy tannins underline concentrated wild red fruits. It's vertical in nature – as you may expect given the limestone soils – delivering a shot of citrus peel on the long and super-fresh finish. (Drink between 2023-2044) (JB)

Almost 50% whole-bunch fermentation.
Lustrous deep ruby. Stunning raspberry nose with a hint of crushed blackcurrant. Suave yet still a little austere with super-long, muscular tannins that are still a little unsettled. Perfect balance between fruit and supple acidity. Enormous length without being heavy. Not ready yet. (WS) (Drink between 2026-2042) 18/20 points
