Oddero’s Vignarionda Barolo Riserva 2019 is a profound and age-worthy expression of this legendary Serralunga d’Alba cru, showcasing intensity, structure, and refinement. The nose is deep and complex, revealing layers of dark cherry, black plum, and dried rose, intertwined with notes of tobacco, licorice, graphite, and crushed stone. The palate is powerful yet poised, offering concentrated red and black fruit, iron-laced minerality, and firm, chiseled tannins, all balanced by vibrant acidity. A long, commanding finish lingers with nuances of balsamic, cedar, and dark spice.
