Riserva Vignarionda Barolo docg Oddero 2011

Barolo “Vignarionda” by Oddero is a red wine with a great balance and harmony. It is produced with Nebbiolo grapes coming from the famous “Vignarionda” vineyard, thus called for its particular amphitheatre structure, within a sunny valley in Serralunga district. This wine has a bright ruby red colour and an elegant and soft bouquet, with notes of mixed berries, spice, dry flowers, licorice and tobacco. The taste is pleasant, intense and persistent; it has strong tannins, a good structure and an excellent persistence. Barolo “Vignarionda” is perfect can bed paired with roasted or stuffed red meat, game and mature cheese. This wine has an excellent ageing potential.

All along Oddero family is owner of vineyards, so it is very difficult to establish a precise beginning of the wine making process. Lorenzo and Luigi started to produce wine at the end of 800, starting from their vineyards of La Morra. Giacomo Oddero, grandfather of the present manager of this cave, took part of the International Exposition of Torino in 1991, where he proposed his Barolo wine. Presently the winery is carried on by Mariacristina and Mariavittoria, who have inherited by their father the cult of wine and its origins.
