Tasting Notes
The white truffles and ripe fruit come out clearly on the nose. Full-bodied and very rich with layers of fruit and tannins. Tight finish. This is a wine for the cellar. Try after 2026. -James Suckling
From a long growing season that allowed Nebbiolo grapes to mature in a stress-free environment, the Orlando Abrigo 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Rongalio shows subtle power that slowly builds the vertical intensity of this pretty wine. The bouquet puts on a delicate display of wild berry, blue flower, tarry smoke, rust and aniseed. This Riserva is born in a two-hectare plot with calcareous soils and veins of iron-rich clay. These conditions lead to the tightly knit and firm mouthfeel. This is a 7,000-bottle production. -94+pts, Erin Larkin for The Wine Advocate
