2016 Guido Porro Barolo Vigna Rionda – 93pt Rated Italian Red Wine

Discover the Elegance of Guido Porro’s 2016 Barolo Vigna Rioda

Crafted by master winemaker Guido Porro in Serralunga d’Alba’s prestigious Rionda vineyard—a plot often hailed as Serralunga’s Romanée-Conti—this 2016 Barolo is a triumph of Piedmont’s terroir and Nebbiolo’s regal character. With a Vinous rating of 93 points and acclaim from Kermit Lynch as a “masterpiece,” this wine embodies timeless sophistication for collectors and connoisseurs alike.

A Symphony of Elegance
This Barolo unfolds with silken textures and vibrant complexity—notes of wild cherry, violet, and spice harmonize with subtle mineral undertones. Its refined tannins and seamless balance make it equally captivating now or cellared for decades. Perfect for savoring at multiple stages of its evolution, this wine is a testament to Guido Porro’s dedication to crafting wines of unparalleled depth and nuance.
