The 2010 Tre Tine is a quintessential Rinaldi Barolo—structured, soulful, and full of quiet depth. Crafted in one of Barolo’s most celebrated modern vintages, this bottling brings together fruit from three historic crus: Brunate, Le Coste, and Ravera, blended in a way that reflects the estate’s philosophy of harmony over singularity.

The result is a wine that opens with rose petals, sour cherry, blood orange, and dried herbs, with undertones of tar, leather, and iron-rich earth. The palate is firm, bright, and layered, carried by high-toned acidity and fine, long-grained tannins. While Brunate–Le Coste tends to be the bolder sibling, Tre Tine is known for lift, elegance, and purity—and 2010 delivers all of that in spades.

Fermented in concrete and aged in large Slavonian oak botti, Rinaldi’s wines are made in a deeply traditional style, and in 2010, that meant structure and longevity without losing freshness or detail. This bottle is drinking beautifully now with a decant, but it still has 15–20 years of graceful evolution ahead.

Pair with classic Piemontese fare—tajarin with truffle, braised meats, or aged cheeses—and savor a true icon of traditional Barolo.

A true legend in the commune of Barolo, Beppe Rinaldi was the last of the “Last of the Mohicans” – the others were Bartolo Mascarello and Teobaldo Cappellano – who resisted modern trends. Sadly, he died in 2018 at a still young 69, and the estate is now run by his daughters Marta and Carlotta (the wine-maker and farmer, respectively), who are extremely worthy successors. Like Bartolo Mascarello, Beppe believed in the magic of blending different sites, but EU labeling laws forced him to make some compromises. They now release a Brunate, which is 85% Brunate and the rest Le Coste, and a “Tre Tine”, which is a blend of their remaining grapes from Le Coste, plus San Lorenzo and Ravera. They also have a range of wines from lesser grapes that are excellent but rarely seen in the United States because they are not imported via regular channels.

"The 2010 Barolo Tre Tine, a last minute addition, is spectacular. I know, it’s too young, but I couldn’t help myself. These days, Rinaldi’s Barolo Brunate gets most of the attention, but in some vintages, I find the Tre Tine even more classic because of its laser like focus and youthful austerity. The 2010 is a wine that very much fits that mold. Brisk and energetic, the 2010 Tre Tine is the perfect bookend to the evening and brings us full circle to the present day." -Vinous

"In 2010, Giuseppe Rinaldi adjusted the blend of their two Barolo to conform with the MGA labeling regulations. They now make a Brunate cru and the gorgeous Tre Tine. The backbone is 60% Ravera with Le Coste and Cannubi San Lorenzo contributing 20% each. Fresh, pure and haunting, it effortlessly brings together earthy base notes with bright red cherry and lifted lilac and violet scents. The fine-boned structure is all about enduring grace."
