The Barbaresco DOCG by Albino Rocca is a red wine that represents an excellence of the Piedmontese wine scene, the result of the passion and experience of the Rocca family, who for generations has dedicated itself to the production of high quality wines. This Barbaresco, obtained from carefully selected Nebbiolo grapes, is a tribute to the winemaking tradition of the area, offering a rich and profound tasting experience.
The wine has a garnet red color typical of Nebbiolo, tending towards orange with aging. On the nose, Albino Rocca's Barbaresco offers a complex and fascinating bouquet, with notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, enriched by nuances of violet, spices, tobacco and a light balsamic hint, which adds elegance and depth to the olfactory profile .
In the mouth, the wine demonstrates a perfect balance between power and finesse, with silky and well-integrated tannins supporting a robust but harmonious structure. The acidity is lively, helping to keep the wine fresh and dynamic on the palate. The finish is long and persistent, with a return of spicy and fruity notes, which leaves a pleasant sensation of complexity and harmony.
Albino Rocca's Barbaresco is a wine that pairs beautifully with rich and structured dishes, such as red meats, game, truffle-based dishes and mature cheeses. Its elegance and depth also make it an excellent meditation wine, capable of evolving and revealing new aromatic nuances with aging.
