More questions
Barolo Bussia DOCG - Tenuta La Rocca represents an emblematic expression of the famous Langhe territory in Piedmont. Produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the renowned Bussia subzone, this wine embodies the elegance and complexity typical of Barolo, enriched by the particular calcareous-clay terroir of the hill.
The aging takes place in oak barrels, which give structure and velvety aromas, while the long cellar stay promotes the balance between vigorous tannins and intense scents of withered rose, cherry, spices, and a delicate hint of licorice. On the palate, it is powerful and enveloping, with a persistence that allows for appreciable freshness.
Ideal paired with red meat dishes, braised meats, or aged cheeses, this Barolo Bussia DOCG - Tenuta La Rocca is a refined choice for those who want to discover the depth of Nebbiolo in one of its most authentic interpretations.
