From 30 year old vines in Serralunga d'Alba.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the arbitrage play on the Piedmont shelf. The importer tech sheet says it plainly: Nebbiolo from the best positions in Serralunga d'Alba, Guyot trained, vines approximately 30 to 35 years old. Serralunga is one of the most structurally serious Barolo communes there is, and this wine is grown in it, just outside the DOCG boundary lines on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cellar treatment is not entry level either. Grapes are collected in small baskets and taken immediately to the winery to be pressed and destemmed, then placed in temperature controlled vats for 10 days of maceration with frequent punching down for colour, and in spring, after malolactic, the wine moves into oak to age for at least 12 months. A full year in wood is generous for a Langhe Nebbiolo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe producer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlessandro Rivetto produces Langhe Arneis, Langhe Nascetta, Dolcetto d'Alba, Barbera d'Alba, Langhe Nebbiolo, Barolo including Serralunga d'Alba, Lazzarito and Vigna Rionda, Barbaresco and Moscato d'Asti, from 16 hectares and about 100,000 bottles, with vineyards in Sinio, Serralunga d'Alba, La Morra, Alba and Acqui Terme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead that list again: \u003cstrong\u003eLazzarito and Vigna Rionda\u003c\/strong\u003e, two of the most revered crus in all of Barolo.
