Vigna Rionda has long been regarded as one of the great sites of Piemonte, known for producing wines of remarkable intensity and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMakuprofiili\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, this Barolo shows a beautiful deep ruby-red colour that hints at both concentration and refinement. The nose is complex and layered, with intense aromas of balsamic notes and red fruit, adding a distinctive, savoury edge to the wine’s aromatic profile. On the palate, it is stringent and powerful, with a solid body, firm structure, and the kind of tension that promises development over time.\n\nThis is a wine that benefits from patience. While already impressive, Vigna Rionda is best given several years in bottle to fully unfold its depth and harmonise its tannins, revealing even greater complexity with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from Vigna Rionda, a renowned single vineyard in Serralunga d’Alba, where the terroir is prized for producing Barolos with structure, precision, and longevity. The fruit is harvested by hand and carefully selected before vinification. Fermentation follows a traditional approach, with maceration lasting at least 20 days, and the wine is then aged for 24 months in oak barrels to build complexity and polish the tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Barolo is an excellent match for rich, savoury dishes such as braised beef, veal shank, truffle risotto, game, and mature hard cheeses.
