I managed to get my hands on what almost amounts to a mini horizontal/vertical from the Barbaresco producer Rizzi:
2010 Rizzi Barbaresco 'Nervo'
2011 Rizzi Barbaresco 'Nervo'
2011 Rizzi Barbaresco 'Rizzi'
2012 Rizzi Barbaresco 'Rizzi'
Is anyone interested in joining us for a low key Sat afternoon tasting? Looking at either March 25th or April 1st.
Would be cool to expand on the Rizzi theme further, but could also just split the costs of the wines.

I'd be interested if the 1st, but can't do 25th....
What about an Italian themed offline on the night of the 1st, with a group buy in towards your flight? Just an idea, it's your party.

I'm just about to review the 2013 Rizzi + Nervo + 11 Boito. The 13 Pajorè was very good. You should buy those too

Had I seen your first Rizzi review before buying I would have grabbed more actually - was grabbing a selection to try, not knowing anything about the producer other than they were "probably not oaky".

Not oaky. Hooray for not oaky!
