The Negretti 2018 Barolo Rive (with 7,000 bottles produced) offers smooth concentration and the slightly softer vinous disposition that one might associate with wines from La Morra. This is a balanced and fresh Nebbiolo with a more accessible personality that suits it very nicely, especially if paired with one of the rich meat sauces and pasta dishes that are typical of Piedmont's regional cuisine. Grapes are harvested from a south-facing position, and the vines are 45 years old. Some of that freshness and brightness is locked in during a brief phase of cryomaceration (for 36 hours), and aging occurs in Austrian oak casks. This is a terrific find.
