Lot presentation

Barolo DOCG Rocche dell'Annunziata Torriglione Roberto Voerzio (no reserve) 2000

The wine

The Rocche Dell’Annunziata Torriglione cuvée is a rich, opulent Barolo, bursting with black fruit aromas (blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, cherry) and notes of musk. Supple tannins combine with aromas of fresh fruit and great length on the palate. This Barolo is perfect with a variety of meats and game and, most importantly, after several years’ cellaring. To craft this cuvée, the estate first nurtures its vines following a healthy approach, tending them with the same dedication as a small garden. All synthetic molecules (and therefore all kinds of herbicides, fungicides and chemical fertilisers) are therefore banned. To obtain high berry concentration, the vines are planted at a high density and green harvesting is practised. In the cellar, native yeasts trigger fermentation in inert containers, preserving the identity of the terroir. The wine is matured over a long period, giving it excellent ageing potential.

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.
