Tasting Notes
Technical Details
Attributes

In the glass, the wine pours a brilliant light ruby color with tawny highlights. The nose is hauntingly aromatic, emitting pristine aromas of red cherry, raspberry and ripe strawberry all underpinned by a delicate combination of spice and floral notes that effortlessly waft from the glass. Layered and elegant on the palate, the wine showcases loads of soft, satin tannins perfectly balanced by a brisk acidity and concentrated fruit flavors that deliver power and refreshment. The finish is stunning, delivering layer upon layer of complex flavors with incredible panache and depth.

The Estate

Four generations of the Rocca family have been crafting exceptional wine in Barbaresco since the 1940’s, when Giacomo Rocca began bottling his wine in demijohns. In the 1960’s, his son, Albino, expanded the vineyard holdings of the family and founded the eponymous estate.

Wine Making

Made from 100% Nebbiolo, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel then aged in large German and Austrian oak casks for two years, resulting in a clean, pure and refined expression of Barbaresco. In the glass, the wine pours a brilliant light ruby color with tawny highlights.

Food Suggestions
