2015 Guido Porro Vigna Rionda Barolo

(92 Points) The 2015 Barolo Vigna Rionda is a very pretty and elegant wine, especially considering this is just the second vintage from these young vines. Sensual and ample, with striking translucency, Porro's 2015 captures plenty of the refined, sensual qualities that have made Barolos from this site so coveted over the years. If the 2015 is this good, I can only imagine where the wine could go in more favorable vintages and once the vines are a bit older. Next to the other Barolos in this range, the Vigna Rionda has a completely unique textural feel. Then again, that is precisely what makes this site so unique. (AG) Review Date: 11/2019 Vinous
