Albino Rocca Barbaresco Ronchi, Barbaresco DOCG, Italy 2021

Four generations tell the story of Albino Rocca winery, it is a winemaking tradition that we continue through our own work yet is guided by those who preceded us; our grandfather Albino and our father Angelo Rocca. Today, as in the past, we are constantly in search of the highest quality wines that express the characteristics, purity and elegance that are so recognizably linked with the territory of Barbaresco.

“Ronchi” is deeply rooted in the Rocca family’s history, as their most historical vineyard. In this Geographical Mention the family owns many parcelsall of which overlook the morning sun. For this reason every year the Barbaresco from “Ronchi”shows more complexity, potential and infinite elegance.

"The 2021 Barbaresco Ronchi comes across as a bit youthfully austere relative to some of the other wines in the range. Chalk, mint, white pepper, scorched earth and strong mineral notes infuse the Ronchi with tremendous power to match its sinewy, driving personality. This vivid, sculpted Barbaresco is hugely promising." Vinous 95
