Wine Notes
Rinaldi makes great Barolo which may be why the Gavi gets overlooked a little. This is a bright, floral Gavi that has a lovely mineral and citrus core. Good value and goes down very easily on a warm afternoon.
Producer Notes
Francesco Rinaldi is an old established family run winery in Piedmont that has done well to remain quality conscious throughout it’s expansion. The portfolio includes wines from Barbera, Barbaresco, Dolcetto and Barolo as well as Gavi. Their single vineyard Barolos, Cannubi and Brunate, are what they are most famous for and usually offer good value for the region.
