“Here is a very pretty, classic Dolcetto to take for a spin if you are unfamiliar with this variety. It is deceptively deep in colour but quite light bodied and fresh. The nose is notably floral – red rose – with grapy, blackberry fruit and subtle spice. It is medium bodied, quite juicy and fresh with mild tannin. The length is very good to excellent. Chill lightly and enjoy with charcuterie. 91pts.”

Réva has a dynamic relationship with tradition: respect without
excessive obedience, knowledge without stuffiness. This attitude is
reflected in the search for an original personal style that is free to
communicate their character through the extraordinary expressive
possibilities of the Langhe and the Barolo area.
Réva manages vineyards in some of the most important Langhe
crus: Ravera in Novello, Lazzarito in Serralunga and Cannubi in
Barolo. There are currently 7.5 hectares in production, of which 4
are cultivated with Nebbiolo, 1.5 with Barbera, 1 with Dolcetto and
1 with Sauvignon. All the vineyards are cultivated organically and
monitored directly by the in-house staff.
Organic viticulture is a huge part of what makes Réva spectacular.
Their choice for an 100% organic management regime of the
vineyards involves rigorous practices that prohibit the use of
synthetic products, preserve the biodiversity of the vineyard,
protect the fertility of the soil and ultimately ensure greater
adherence of the wine to it’s terroir.
