Summary
Giuseppe „Beppe“Rinaldi is currently the fifth generation to run his family’s estate, taking over in 1992 following the passing of his father, Battista. He is a devout traditionalist who believes in making age worthy Barolo’s that require a lot of time to soften. In addition to his traditional fermentation practices of manual punchdowns and long, slow, macerations, he also believes that classic Barolo is a blend of various sites. Thus, despite having vineyards in some of Barolo’s most highly regarded crus, he does not make any single vineyard bottlings. The vineyards are farmed organically.
Style & Vinification Techniques
Winemaking is very traditional. Wines are fermented with indigenous yeasts in ancient tini, tall upright oak vats, without temperature control and punchdowns are carried out by hand. Wines are aged in old botti for around 3 ½ years.
