Rivetto presents Seshen, its new Nebbiolo Rosé

Serralunga d’Alba, June 2026 – Rivetto (link) presents Seshen, a new Nebbiolo rosé born from the work carried out both in the vineyard and in the cellar, as the natural evolution of an approach aimed at unlocking the full potential of the variety. A wine that offers a more immediate interpretation alongside the more structured expressions of Nebbiolo, while remaining deeply connected to the grape’s identity. The name Seshen derives from the ancient Egyptian word for the lotus flower, a symbol of rebirth, creation and transformation. It is a fitting reference to the idea behind this wine: exploring every potential expression of Nebbiolo and guiding it towards new forms without altering its intrinsic character.
