At Ravera, the land opens up into a natural amphitheatre, where the vineyards enjoy optimal exposure to the sun. The mineral-rich soil nourishes the vines generously, giving them the strength to produce ripe, juicy fruit. Ravera wines are like symphonies, harmonious and complete, with a good body and elegant tannins. The nose detects notes of ripe fruit, spices and flowers in a perfect balance that captivates the palate.

100% Nebbiolo

South-east facing
Altitude 350 m
Novello Municipality

The soil of the Lequio Formation (11-12 million years ago) is made up of approximately 50% silt with the remainder sand and clay with a high content of active lime.

A wine with an impressive structure, it is particularly suitable with second courses based on red meat and game. Also good with cheeses.

Alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks, elevation in wooden barrels and porcelain eggs.

Ratings & Reviews


93 Points -James Suckling:
A flavorful and zesty Barolo, with layers of fresh figs, coffee, sour cherries, crushed stones and vanilla. It’s full-bodied, with delicious fruity coffee aromas accompanied by firm, sleek tannins. Expressive. Try in 2025." (Jun 2023)

93 Points - Wine Advocate:
The 2019 Barolo Ravera gives this producer access to one of the most interesting growing sites in the appellation that straddles the villages of Barolo and Novello. The wine displays the heartier quality of fruit that this site is known for with savory and slightly exotic overtones of spice, dried rose bud and Turkish tea. Fruit comes from a half-hectare parcel at 400 meters in elevation." - Monica Larner (Aug 2023)
