Rivetti & Lauro" comes out of an ambitious idea. The vineyards of Valtellina tell us centuries of history and tradition. They are the largest terraced wine-growing area in the Italian mountains. A place where it is produced Nebbiolo, a great vine for a wine of noble and extraordinary quality. We want to start from this tradition to introduce new growing techniques addressed to organic and biodynamic, in harmony with the mountain environment.
We are growing new species of vine, whose fruit can meet the quality and generosity of Nebbiolo, exalting it. The great work in the yards make possible to build great wines.
"Rivetti&Lauro" only makes manual vintages, collecting the best grapes into boxes. We want to maintain the homogeneity of the product by considering its origin. After an accurate work of selection the grape is vinificated into small tanks and then refined into French oak barrels, tonneaux and bariques. In our wine it is possible to find the scent and characteristic of our territory.
.
Our territory is in Lombardy next to the border with Switzerland and by the sides of the Lake of Como. The beautiful town of Tirano, where our cellars are, is simply reachable by train or by car from the Lake of Como and it is on the way to important touristic resorts as Saint Moritz, Bormio and Livigno.
