Giorgio Rivetti is one of the great movers and shakers in Piedmont. He is the center of the "Barolo Boys," that group of dynamic and immensely successful winemakers: Altare, Clerico, Sandrone, Scavino, etc.

Giorgio Rivetti comes from the Astigiano region. His "house wine" is therefore a Moscato d'Asti. For some years now, however, he has been focusing more on red wines. His first great success was the "Pin," a field blend aged in barriques made from Barbera and Nebbiolo. He called it Pin because his father was called that by everyone in the village. The 1990 Pin immediately achieved the coveted three glasses from Gambero Rosso.

After the Pin, Giorgio Rivetti concentrated on Barbaresco. Three truly great wines emerged from three different cru sites: the Gallina, the Starderi, and the Valeirano. For the labels, he chose Dürer's rhinoceros to make it clear that his Barbaresco is a wine full of primal power. It was clear that Giorgio would not leave out Barolo. He bought vineyards and built a new winery near Grinzane Cavour, which he called Campé della Spinetta. His Barolo Campé comes from there. A wine of rare density and concentration. For the Barolo, he chose Dürer's lion because it is a wine that embodies not only great power but also elegance.
