Barolo is often referred to as “the king of wines.” This austere and complex wine has potential for long aging. It is recommended that the bottles be laid down in a cool, airy place, protected from all sources of light and far from noises and vibrations.
This Barolo is brought to you by the Rocca multigenerational winemaking family, with its roots in Puglia. In 2009, they joined forces with the Dezzani winemaking family of Piemonte. Founded in 1934, Dezzani has access to some of the best vineyards in Monferrato and in Langhe, where the Barolo apellation is situated.
The motto of the Rocca winemaking family is: “Five generations, one passion, great Italian wines!”
GRAPE VARIETIES: 100% Nebbiolo.
ORIGIN: Langhe, Piemonte region, northern Italy.
