Francesco Rinaldi & Figli Barbaresco DOCG 2020
Vintage Character
2020 Francesco Rinaldi Barbaresco DOCG is a classic Nebbiolo from Piedmont’s Barbaresco appellation, where the variety delivers perfume, structure, and fine-boned longevity. The 2020 vintage is widely regarded as a strong one in the Langhe: a generally warm growing season produced ripe fruit, while well-timed freshness helped preserve balance and aromatic lift. Barbaresco’s distinctive mix of calcareous marl and clay, together with its rolling hills and moderating river influence, gives Nebbiolo a more graceful, finely textured expression than many neighboring zones.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, this wine shows lifted scents of red cherry, wild raspberry, rose petal, and violet, followed by hints of anise, spice, and dried herbs. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with vibrant acidity, firm yet polished tannins, and a savory mineral thread that carries through a persistent, floral finish. Its profile suits dishes that echo both fragrance and structure: duck breast with cherry reduction, porcini risotto, or roast pork with rosemary.
Winery Background
Francesco Rinaldi & Figli, founded in 1870, is one of the Langhe’s enduring traditional houses, long admired for wines that favor transparency over power. Today the estate remains in family hands, with Paola and Piera Rinaldi continuing a philosophy centered on patient élevage and clear terroir expression. Fruit is harvested by hand, fermentation is traditional, and aging in large Slavonian oak botti preserves Nebbiolo’s perfume and line rather than masking it with overt wood, making the estate a benchmark for classic Piedmont style.
