Nebbiolo d'Alba - Tenuta La Rocca

The Nebbiolo d'Alba from Tenuta La Rocca shows a garnet red colour with ruby highlights. On the nose it is characterised by notes of ripe red fruit and small flowers, accompanied by hints of sweet spice and a subtle earthy note. The aromatic profile is fine and restrained, not overly expressive, encouraging patient attention.

On the palate it displays present but polished tannins and a lively acidity that supports the structure, with medium-intensity body and a savoury finish. It suits everyday dishes such as roasted meats, stewed game and medium-aged cheeses; it benefits from decanting or a few minutes of airing in the glass. Recommended serving temperature around 16–18 °C to appreciate its finesse. Its balance of tannin and freshness makes it enjoyable both young and with more structured pairings. In the glass it proves progressive, with fruity returns and a tendency toward a savoury aftertaste.
