Bricco Capre, literally the “Goat’s cliff”, is one of the symbolic points of Rivetti's history. From here, in fact, superior wines are born, the flagship wines of our whole production. Although the name may be difficult and hardly attributable to wine, with its 40 years of history, it is the oldest vineyard of our company. The particular denomination is due to its conformation, not very common for a hill, so that it was often associated with pasture activites. On the other hand, its clayey and calcareous soil is perfect for growing grapes, which is where the production of Barbera d’Alba, Dolcetto d’Alba and Nebbiolo d’Alba Superiore was born and continues to be characterized today.
Furthermore, a hill of high historical value, since the partisans gathered here in October 1944 for the conquest of Alba which will give life to the 23 days of the Free Republic.
