Barolo DOCG - Tre Tine - G. Rinaldi is a wine that represents a masterpiece of Piedmontese viticulture, the result of the experience and passion of the G. Rinaldi winery, a family business that has cultivated its vineyards in the heart of the Langhe for generations, following principles of traditional viticulture that respect the territory.

"Tre Tine" refers to the selection of grapes from three different vineyards, a practice that allows the unique characteristics of different parcels to be combined to create a Barolo of exceptional balance and complexity. This wine is a celebration of Piedmontese wine art, enhancing the Nebbiolo variety in one of its most noble and fascinating expressions.

At sight, Barolo Tre Tine shows a garnet red color typical of the great Barolos, with reflections that tend towards orange with the passing of the years. On the nose, it opens with an intense and complex bouquet, where notes of ripe red fruits, dried flowers and spices stand out, enriched by nuances of tobacco, leather and a light mineral trace, a distinctive sign of the terroirs of origin of the grapes.

In the mouth, the wine is deep and structured, with robust but refined tannins and an acidity that guarantees freshness and long persistence. The taste palette is consistent with the sense of smell, offering a rich and layered tasting experience, which evolves towards a long and persistent finish, marked by a harmonious balance between power and elegance.

Perfect in combination with intense and complex dishes, such as grilled red meats, truffle-based dishes, game and mature cheeses, the Barolo DOCG Tre Tine by G. Rinaldi is also an excellent choice as a meditation wine, capable of evolving magnificently over time and to offer a tasting experience that is enriched with new nuances with every sip.

Winery history
The G. Rinaldi winery is a traditional point of reference in the Barolo region. Giuseppe “Beppe” Rinaldi was central to the estate’s renown: a veterinarian turned winemaker, he was recognized as one of the foremost traditional interpreters of Barolo. After his passing, management continued with his daughters, who today carry on the estate management and vineyard work. The estate has historically bottled Barolo from several crus, including Brunate, Le Coste, Cannubi–San Lorenzo and Ravera.
Production philosophy
An approach strongly rooted in tradition and the local terroir: long fermentations and macerations, use of large neutral casks rather than small barriques, and a focus on highlighting the character of individual vineyards rather than modern techniques. The style favors the longevity and elegance of Nebbiolo over early drinkability.
