Barolo Briccolina

Azienda Agricola Rivetto is a wine producer based in the Barolo commune and sub region of Serralunga d'Alba, producing wines under the Barolo, Barbaresco, Nebbiolo and Barbera d'Alba titles, among others. The history of the estate can be traced back to 1902, when it was founded as a merchant business in Asti, eventually becoming a major trader of wines and grapes in the area. Operations moved to Alba in 1922, where Ercole Rivetto began producing wine. In 1938, Rivetto acquired the Tenuta Loirano vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba, and in 1970, the winery was built.
