Founded in 1958 by Arnaldo Rivera, the son of a smallholder, Terre del Barolo is a cooperative based in Castiglione Falletto, growing from 21 founding members to 300 today. The company maintains a philosophy based on quality, local provenance and commercial reliability, including a technical assistance programme that encourages growers to pursue quality and environmental sustainability. The winery uses modern technology while following traditional procedures. This wine undergoes maturation in both French and Slavonian oak casks. Cannubi, a small hill, is one of the most famous and sought-after Barolo vineyards.

SB Rich, smoky cherry and raspberry nose. The attack is fresh and limpid and this shows purity of fruit, though there is no lack of tannin to give structure, with acidity bringing out the sweetness of the fruit.

MG Round, fresh, juicy – notable sweetness of bright red fruit partnering notes of liquorice and tobacco. Lively and youthful; a lot more to give.

SH Complex nose of sous-bois, dark cherry, creamy spice. Rounded and harmonious with fine, gravelly tannins; attractive weight and balance.
