This 2018 Barolo Ravera from Cogno, made from 100% Nebbiolo, will present a complex aromatic profile. Expect classic notes of tart red cherry, raspberry, and dried rose petals, interwoven with more savory undertones of licorice, tar, forest floor, and a hint of mineral graphite characteristic of the Ravera cru. On the palate, it will be full-bodied with high acidity and firm, grippy tannins that are a hallmark of young Barolo. The flavors will echo the nose, with persistent red fruit, floral elegance, and a long, structured finish that promises excellent evolution with age. The 2018 vintage, while offering good ripeness, maintains freshness and structure.
