Ravera is the most important single vineyard in Comune di Novello, located on the south-west quadrant of the Barolo area. Grapes are sorted manually three times: directly on the vine, as whole clusters on the sorting tables, and lastly as single berries. Vinification was carried in custom-designed vertical tini, with gentle punch down and rinsing of the cap. It lasted 56 days including submerged cap. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation took place in the following Spring. The 2017 Barolo Ravera aged for 25 months in large Slavonian casks of 25 and 50hL. It was bottled on July 14th 2020.
