Barbaresco DOCG Albino Rocca 1971
The wine
This Barbaresco's dark visual aspect delivers a bouquet rich in fruity, ripe notes. The palate is full, delicate and precise. During vinification, the grape must remains in contact with the skins for 8 days. The wine is then matured for 18 months in oak barrels, and receives an additional six months' bottle maturation before going on sale. A wine to be enjoyed in its youth.
Angelo and Albino Rocca's 10-hectare domaine produces two Barbaresco crus - Bric Ronchi and Loreto - which have attracted praise from international professional critics. Small yields are favoured to create concentrated wines with excellent cellaring potential.
