History: Massolino (formally Azienda Agricola Vigna Rionda) is a Piedmont winery best known for its Barolo DOCG wines made from the Nebbiolo variety. The 23 hectares (57 acres) of estate vines are almost all entirely in the Barolo sub-region Serralunga d’Alba.

Tasting Notes:

Crafted from the Nebbiolo grape, entices with aromas of ripe red cherries, rose petals, and hints of tar and dried herbs. On the palate, it reveals layers of dark fruit, licorice, and tobacco, framed by firm tannins and bright acidity, leading to a long, savory finish with lingering notes of spice and cedar.
