Barbera delivers brightness and energy, with generous fruit balanced by natural acidity, while Dolcetto provides softer, approachable styles with dark fruit and gentle spice.

The final blend matured for 30 months, this time across a broader range of vessels than 2021: 40- to 100-hl French (Gamba), Austrian (Stockinger, Schneckenleitner) and Slavonian (Garbellotto) oak, rather than large Slavonian casks alone.

Massolino does not use all their harvested fruit for the single-vineyard release: rather they make a strict selection, bottling only about a third of the potential volume under this label, with the rest going into the classic Barolo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThere is very little topsoil in Vigna Rionda, and there is a high concentration of limestone, oxidised iron and other mineral elements, traceable to the Lequio Formation soil type - the oldest soil in the Barolo area. The limestone content (around 20%) is among the highest in the region, limiting vine vigour and ensuring full phenolic ripeness. Other features include the 250–360 metre altitude and the site's south-southwest aspect, which protects the vines from northerly winds and frost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eCombined, the position and soils of Vigna Rionda create wines with an optimum balance of perfume, finesse, concentration and structure, along with the acidity and tannin to reward long aging in botti and bottle. This is why Massolino today always release Vigna Rionda as a Riserva, with a minimum of six years' age. It's fermented in large wooden fermenters and aged exclusively in large wooden botti for 2.5 years, with the remainder of the aging in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThis is only the second release of the Etichetta Nera (Black Label), reserved for only the greatest years. The first release was the 2016. The second, the 2020, is a wonderfully refined, pure and classy Vigna Rionda-super perfumed with crushed cherry, bay leaf and dried flower aromatics and a fleshy, powdery palate that is already approachable, but has the length and structure to live for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Massolino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49012935131355,"sku":null,"price":662.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/1251\/5803\/files\/2020_Massolino_Barolo_Vigna_Rionda_Etichetta_Nera_Riserva_b6d65046-7d8c-47a6-baba-f415cf789c60.jpg?v=1784884022"},{"product_id":"2023-massolino-barbaresco-pre-arrival-offer","title":"2023 Massolino Barbaresco | Pre-Arrival Offer","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLamont's Pre-Arrival Offer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eMassolino's Barbaresco is a relatively recent addition to the range, produced by the estate since 2019 from vines in three of the appellation's most respected sites - Albesani, Starderi and Serraboella - all co-fermented together.
