“A beautiful example of the luscious 2012 vintage for Barolo. Shows dried strawberry, light chocolate, toffee and nut aromas and flavors. Hints of dried fruits too. Full yet fresh and agile.”
“In Castiglione Falletto, wedged between the Villero and Rocche vineyards of Castiglione, there is Barolo’s smallest additional geographical indication (MGA). It is called Bricco Rocche and, since the mid-1970s, it has been the exclusive monopoly of our family. The position of this parcel of land is unique, located at the exact center of the appellation, and the idea of immersion that it conveys proves to be its first expression. We readily believe, in fact, that the wines generated by this hill harmonize the main characteristics of a whole terroir, almost as though they were obtained by osmosis with the environment surrounding them.
This circle, ideally already closed, is definitively completed in the glass. What emerges is a whole sense of harmony and the olfactive matrix that is sanguine and austere, rousing and filling the nostrils, or the density of tannins, which instils it with a vigorous, but succulent and long, mouthfeel, do not disrupt the sense of balance.”
