2016 Francesco Rinaldi & Figli Barolo DOCG

The 2016 Francesco Rinaldi & Figli Barolo DOCG is crafted by the historic family-owned estate Francesco Rinaldi & Figli, sourcing Nebbiolo grapes from prime parcels in the Barolo zone, including Rocche dell’Annunziata, Sarmassa, Vignane, Codana, and a touch of Cannubi.

The wine shows aromas of wild strawberry, forest berry, dried plum, rose petal, and subtle hints of leather. On the palate it is mid-weight yet structured, with lively acidity, refined tannins, and a polished finish that highlights purity and expressiveness.

It pairs beautifully with braised meats, game, truffle dishes, or aged cheeses and can be enjoyed now with gentle decanting or aged further to develop additional complexity.
