Ester Canale - Vigna Rionda Langhe Nebbiolo Giovanni Rosso 2015 (750ml)
Vinous: 92 Points
"The 2015 Langhe Nebbiolo emerges from the Vigna Rionda parcels David Rosso replanted in 2011. Silky tannins and soft perfumed red berry fruit offer a striking expression of Vigna Rionda in miniature. This gracious lithe Langhe Nebbiolo has so much to offer. I can't wait to see what Davide Rosso does as his vineyard gets older. This is an exquisite wine by any measure." -- "This is a strong set of wines from Davide Rosso. The challenges of the growing season are impossible to fully escape as is evident in the Barolo Cerretta but across the board the wines are excellent to outstanding. This year I was especially impressed by the Barolo Vigna Rionda a wine that hasn't always lived up to its reputation here. The 2014 and its younger brother the 2015 Lange Nebbiolo (from young vines in Rionda) will both give readers a very good idea as to why this Serralunga site is so highly revered. Bravo." -- Antonio Galloni
