The Reva winery in Monforte d'Alba dates back to 1867, but its modern era began in 2013, under the ownership of Miroslav Lekes from the Czech Republic. He appointed Gianluca Colombo as oenologist, and has worked tirelessly to perfect the wines produced on the small 7.5-hectare estate, while also seeking to improve sustainability. Vineyard practice is 100% organic.
From 50-year-old vines; red cherry, pepper and lavender aromas. Bright and easy-going on the palate, with a soft, drinkable character, and liquorice and prune flavours on a refreshing finish. May even be enjoyed chilled on a warm summer day.
Suitable for all kinds of cuisine, from spicy chicken dishes to charcuterie. Perfect for pasta.
4500 bottles produced. Dolcetto, the little sweet one, so named for its ease of cultivation, makes charming wines, approachable in their youth yet not lacking in ageing potential.
