Description

Barolo Vigna Rionda Etichetta Nera by Massolino is the most prestigious creation of the Winery, and represents the highest expression of both that magnificent vineyard and the outstanding vintage. Vigna Rionda gives its name to the peculiar shape and the perfect sun exposure; it's considered as the best Winery vineyard and is defined as the "Great Italian Cru".
