The producer

Crowning the hilltop village of Castiglione Falletto with cellars in the steep hillside below, Vietti was founded by Carlo Vietti in the late 1800s and have been bottling Barolo since 1873. The 1960s became a turning point, when Luciana Vietti married winemaker and art connoisseur Alfredo Curado – who brought the idea of bottling single vineyard Barolo and introducing art labels on the bottles.

Today, Luca Vietti, son of Luciana and Alfredo, run the estate, cultivating fifteen different vineyards across the region. These vineyards deliver material for a fabulous range of wines from the value Perbacco Langhe Nebbiolo right through to five single vineyard wines, of which we list three - Rocche di Castiglione (in Castiglione Falletto), Ravera (in Barolo), and Brunate (in La Morra).

The wine

Vietti’s Barolo Ravera is derived from the estate’s 3-hectare plot in the eponymous vineyard in the Novello village. The exposure is southwest facing, and the soil is calcareous clay. Vines are 30 years old on average with a few dating back to the 1930s. Fermentation and maceration take place in stainless steel tanks and is followed by 32 months ageing in large oak casks. An elegant and refined wine with floral and red fruited complexity, Barolo Ravera rarely disappoints.

We choose our wines based on a range of criteria (see how we choose our wines) of which critic scores is just one. Rather than simply highlight the best score to promote a wine, our average critic score is calculated from the scores provided by several respected wine critics, who we follow for specific regions. They do not represent all critic scores and, wherever possible, we try and give more weight to more recent reviews. Where appropriate we consider market-based scores like Global Wine Score or Wine Searcher Average scores.

As a rule, we look to offer wines that achieve a 92/100 average critic score or better and frankly a lot of very good wines simply don’t make the cut. As a high-end provider we want to reflect that positioning in the quality of wines we offer. Such wines are only a tiny fraction of those generally on offer in the market. We believe that an average score is a more conservative and representative approach, but it is still subjective and only offered as a guide to our customers, who will (and should) do their own research. We will add individual critic scores to our website in the future.
