SEARCH FOR WINE / PRODUCER:   Advanced Search           95+Rating       REVIEW The 2008 Barolo Vigna Rionda possesses striking inner perfume and sweetness as it wraps around the palate. Raspberries, hard candy, flowers, mint and sweet spices are some of the many notes that flow from this effortless, sensual Barolo. Silky tannins are present, but they are nearly covered by the pure sensuality of the fruit. Today the Rionda is supple, sweet and totally inviting. The finish is intense and totally haunting. This is an exceptional, hugely promising Barolo from Giampaolo Pira. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2028. - Tanzer (April 2012)     PRINTABLE VERSION | FACT SHEET | MORE PRESS   Other Reviews: Wine Advocate - Robert Parker     Barolo, 'Vigna Rionda', Luigi Pira   Producer: Luigi Pira   Appellation: Barolo   Region: Piedmont   Country: Italy   Varietal: NEBBIOLO   Vintage: 2008                         BACK TO FACT SHEET
