Barbaresco Albino Rocca 2012

The Barbaresco by Albino Rocca is a beautiful presentation of Nebbiolo that is presented on the palate with a tannic grit really important; a muscular strength that characterizes this Barbaresco, but with time and with the natural evolution in the bottle will become a pleasant velvety caress offering of the notes of red fruits with recalls, wood can conquer anyone. Arises from a historic family of Langhe, a family that has built its success on the enhancement of Nebbiolo and perfect expression of the local terroir; the continuous search for maximum expressiveness with a care in the vineyard can make a difference. A family that unites three generations: the grandfather Albino, the son Angelo and the nephews Daniela, Monica and Paola. The search for the balance, the grape growing in a healthy environment, the love for the vine and the desire to enhance their surroundings. Thus was born the Barbaresco by Albino Rocca, that comes from vineyards located 310 meters above sea level, on a soil rich in clay and limestone, on vines at least 15 years of age. The aging of 24 months in oak barrels German and Austrian guarantees elegance and softness to this Barbaresco that offers in all its notes of red fruit, mulberry, mimosa, liquorice. A growing complexity and intensity that will soften with the passing years...
