  Producer tasting notes: (1992 vintage) "Colour: bright garnet red. Bouquet: reveals multiple broad and enveloping sensations, ranging from those of the early years, focused primarily on red fruits and flowers, to the more evolved sensations of brushwood, tobacco and spices that develop with age. This wine is a harmony of captivating nuances that are released and evolve slowly in the glass. Palate: Vigna Rionda is a unique Barolo, impossible to describe in just a few lines and hard to compare with others, even those from the Serralunga area. A wine capable of complexity, longevity and structure, which come together with unparalleled elegance. A little patience is required for it to reach its full potential, which is why it stays in our cellars until its sixth year, the only wine in our range to do so, when it is released as a Riserva. We recommend decanting and serving at a temperature of 18-20°C." - Massolino

Vintage quality: Poor

Current condition: Likely past it

For Piedmont, the 1992 vintage was less than ideal.

A cold winter gave way to a warm, wet spring with April seeing heavy rain and unsettled temperatures. May was warm but temperatures fell towards the end of the month, only to warm up again in June. Steady rains disrupt...
