Barolo DOCG Rocche dell'Annunziata Torriglione Roberto Voerzio 2017

The wine

Cuvée Rocche Dell'Annunziata Torriglione is a rich and sumptuous Barolo with dark berry aromas (blackcurrant, bramble, blueberry, cherry) and musk notes. The tannins are supple on the palate with fresh fruit aromas and a very fine long finish. This Barolo can be paired with many different meats and game.

About the Producer Roberto Voerzio

Roberto Voerzio, who belongs to a winemaking family, decided to go it alone in 1986 on a 2-hectare plot on the family vineyard. His domaine has gradually acquired a fine reputation for its quality wines, which offer a perfect combination of power and elegance. He is now one of the Barolo big hitters. Accomplished wine grower and skilful vintner Roberto Voerzio specialises in high-density planting and very low yields with a view to distilling the quintessence of his terroirs. He is known notably for creating the very opposite of powerful, extracted and woody wines. Voerzio reflects the ethos of combining modernity and tradition and his bottles are iconic and authentic.
