Elio Sandri, Perno Vigna Disa Riserva other_regions_italy What impresses is the freshThe 2018 Barolo Riserva Perno Vigna Disa, the top wine here, is beguiling, exotic and full of character. Ripe red cherry fruit, blood orange, chinato, herbs, spice, mint, white pepper and a whole range of balsamic inflections all grace this exquisite, layered Barolo. Like all the 2018s here, the Vigna Disa shows the lighter side of the vintage, but it does so in style. What a gorgeous wine this is.
