2021 Guido Porro, Barolo, Vigna Rionda

The 2021 Guido Porro Barolo Vigna Rionda showcases Nebbiolo from one of Barolo DOCG's most revered crus. Located in Serralunga d'Alba, Vigna Rionda's challenging 35% south to southeast-facing slope and distinctive marl and limestone soils impart exceptional depth and complexity to the wine. The highly-rated 2021 vintage, characterized by ample winter water reserves followed by a warm, dry summer and cool nights, yielded a Barolo of striking character, vibrant freshness, and formidable structure for remarkable longevity. Guido Porro, an unassuming producer dedicated to expressing terroir, crafts a wine that profoundly reflects this unique site and the vintage's inherent power and elegance. This Vigna Rionda stands as a quintessential representation of Serralunga's profound Barolo tradition.
