Albino Rocca Barbaresco 2021

Albino Rocca Barbaresco 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

Excellent drinking for the coin. Beautifully balanced. Wonderful tannins, mineral with a light dusting of layered ripe tannins. Core of fruit is superb. Epically drinkable. Long slatey, slightly tarry edge. Hint of spice. Such a refreshing delicious drink. Long, complete, layered and harmonious.Paul Kaan, Wine DecodedThe Albino Rocca 2021 Barbaresco is a big surprise. This wine is fresh and bright, showing enormous focus and purity on the bouquet. There is impressive complexity too w

Albino Rocca 'Montersino' Barbaresco 2021

Albino Rocca ‘Montersino’ Barbaresco 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

A complex, dynamic wine, the 2021 Barbaresco Montersino is redolent of sweet dried cherry, incense, blood orange, cinnamon, sage and mint. It offers striking translucence and mid-weight structure to round out a super-classic profile. Bright acids extend the clean, precise finish. What a gorgeous wine this is.

Albino Rocca 'Cottà' Barbaresco 2021

Albino Rocca ‘Cottà’ Barbaresco 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

With fruit from a half-hectare south-facing parcel in Neive, the 2021 Barbaresco Cottà is not as immediately floral or fragrant as the village Barbaresco presented this year by Albino Rocca. This wine opens at a slower pace to reveal dark cherry fruit, candied orange peel and smoky licorice. It's a slow-moving Barbaresco that continues to show more depth and interesting angles the longer it stays in the glass. This bottle registers the highest alcohol content (at 15%) of the three single-vineya

Albino Rocca 'Ovello Vigna Loreto' Barbaresco 2021

Albino Rocca ‘Ovello Vigna Loreto’ Barbaresco 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

Rocca's 'Ovello Vigna Loreto' has a generosity and delicacy about it. A real elegance and fine tannins. This shows the beauty of the Ovello Cru. This bottle now names the vineyard cru, Ovello, as well as the plot within that site, Vigna Loreto. The Albino Rocca 2019 Barbaresco Ovello Vigna Loreto shows a smooth consistency (especially when compared to the more angular and determined Ronchi). However, Ovello doesn't hold back on power either, and the wine counts long palate persistency with linge

Albino Rocca 'Ronchi' Barbaresco 2021

Albino Rocca ‘Ronchi’ Barbaresco 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

Wow! Tagged as the best holding of the estate you can see why! The Albino Rocca 2021 Barbaresco Ronchi shows a dusty mineral quality that adds to the elegance of the bouquet. Beyond that, you get nicely ripened Nebbiolo fruit with wild cherry and redcurrant. It fleshes out over the palate with tart flavors and chalky tannins.Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate 94 PointsThe 2021 Barbaresco Ronchi comes across as a bit youthfully austere relative to some of the other wines in the range.

Albino Rocca ‘Ronchi’ Barbaresco 2019

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

Wow! Tagged as the best holding of the estate you can see why! Tasting this 6 months after Galloni, it looks to be resolving and very nicely so! Still dark and brooding, all of the components are there in the right place at the right volume. Red and dark fruit with baking spice marry a perfume that builds with time in the glass. Sophisticated yet intense with a core of fruit, savoury and eathy layers matched to fine grape tannins & acid. Balanced and together, a classic. Impressive stuff.

Albino Rocca ‘Angelo’ Barbaresco 2019

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

In hommage to Angelo this goes back to his father’s days when blending was the norm. A truly beautiful blend. The gentle fruit handling and longer maceration or lunga macerazione (55 days here) has yielded a lovely perfume, a savoury core of fruit with delicacy and persistence. The tannins are wonderful. There’s a little truffle, a little liquorice, a little of lots of things coming to play. This is a wine worthy of being a hommage! Each parcel is picked separately, 3-4 days apart, and added

A Splash of 2017 Cru Barbaresco

Albino Rocca 'Cottà' Barbaresco 2017

Albino Rocca ‘Cottà’ Barbaresco 2017

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barbaresco

“One of the highlights in this range, the 2017 Barbaresco Cottà possesses tremendous depth along with the sheer breadth that is the key signature of this Neive cru. Black cherry, plum, leather, licorice, mint and lavender soar out of the glass, all with the backing of serious tannins that are going to need time to soften. This is impressive stuff.” Antonio Galloni, Vinous

Succulent red cherry, plum, rose petal, spice, mint and licorice all build as the Ronchi shows off its considerable allure. Readers will have a very hard time keeping their hands off this jewel of a wine from the Rocca family.” Antonio Galloni

Crushed red berries, chalk, mint, white pepper and rose petal fill out the layers effortlessly. Vivid and translucent in the glass, the 2017 is incred
