Barolo Vigna Rionda Oddero 1997 (750ML)

Robert M. Parker Jr., Wine Advocate: "The 1997 Barolo Vigna Rionda (a great vineyard in Serralunga) exhibits a dark garnet color as well as a sweet nose of cedar, spice box, licorice, toffee, and tobacco. In the mouth, it is creamy, round, medium-bodied, and easy to drink. This offering is a medium weight, evolved, lush Barolo to drink over the next 6-7 years." 6/01

"Intense garnet-ruby red color, deep, limpid. Complex bouquet of dark fruit, blackberries, citrus and rose, balsamic notes of tobacco, liquorice and quina, with nuances of forest underbrush and wet limestone. In the mouth, the wine displays firm tannins, freshness, persistence and longevity." Winery Notes.
