Vigna Rionda Barolo Nebbiolo
Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Great "hot" vintage. Classic nebbiolo nose, rich and long mouthfeel. Earthy, round palate.

Initial blind call of Nebbiolo, then went to Quintarelli Ama for the depth. Just bought several of these so I’m happy. 😃

Sommelier’s recommendation. Phenomenal. Aged character but exceptional character. Rich fruit but not flabby. Acidic finish.

This is the red I have open for today’s #drinksatantonios It is an appealing ruby red, fading to red-orange at the rim. There’s crunchy red berry fruit on the nose, underpinned by darker berry and stone fruits. It has complex balsam and pine resin, a style I really like. On the palate it’s medium weight, with grip and freshness; the tannins are somewhat mouth puckering so it’s probably best with food. Lovely wine, that’s been evolving seductively in the glass even in the time I’ve been typing this.

Tight gritty tannins surrounds a full mouthfeel and longer finish. Nice acidity will give this beauty a few decades to come. Burnt raspberries on the nose and pallet. Yummy
