First produced in 1982. From 26 - 46 year old canes from Vigna Rionda, one of the most historic fields in Serralunga. Massolino has 2.3 Ha, and the height of 330 meters above sea level. Lots of lime and stone.
One of the most durable Barolo ever.
The wine is aged for 42 months in 30 hl Slavonian oak casks, followed by 2.5 years in bottle.
Absolutely stunning Barolo. Long life awaits. One of the truly great and classic Barolos

Vinous
Readers will find a silky, nuanced Barolo in the 2012 Riserva Vigna Rionda. Rose water, orange zest, cinnamon, sage, mint and dried cherry are some of the many nuances that give the 2012 its aromatic top notes, and all of the elements fall into place effortlessly. Relatively open-knit for a young Rionda, this should drink well with minimal cellaring. The 2012 doesn't quite have the explosive energy of vintages like 2010, 2013 or 2014, but it will offer tons of pleasure sooner than any of those wines. I loved it.
