Nestled in the heart of Italy's esteemed Barolo region, the Oddero estate stands as a guardian of tradition and excellence, and their Barolo Vigna Rionda is a true testament to their commitment to crafting exceptional wines. This singular Barolo is meticulously crafted from Nebbiolo grapes sourced exclusively from the Vigna Rionda vineyard, an iconic site renowned for its exceptional terroir. The wine represents a pure expression of this historic subzone within Barolo, where the vines have thrived for generations. Aged for a minimum of three years in traditional Slavonian oak casks, with additional refinement in bottle, this Barolo matures gracefully, allowing its rich, complex flavours to develop. The result is a wine that exudes a deep garnet hue, captivating with its aromas of red cherries, dried roses, and hints of earthy truffle. Upon the palate, the Barolo Vigna Rionda unfolds with elegance and structure, revealing flavours of ripe red fruit, tobacco, and a subtle touch of spice. Its firm tannins provide a solid backbone, promising longevity and continued evolution in the cellar.
