Descrizione

Rocche Di Castiglione Barolo DOCG 2020 produced by the renowned Vietti winery is a highly prized red wine, a sublime expression of the Barolo territory. This wine stands out for its typically intense garnet red color, with reflections that hint at a complex and rich olfactory experience. On the nose, it opens with seductive aromas of ripe red fruit, touches of vanilla, tea, rose, and fine spices, evoking the region's winemaking tradition and artistry.

On the palate, Rocche Di Castiglione exhibits a robust yet balanced structure, where well-integrated tannins dance with the vibrant acidity, typical of high-quality Nebbiolo. This Barolo is known for its excellent longevity, promising favorable evolution if properly stored in the cellar.

Extremely suitable for accompanying intense dishes such as red meats, game, and aged cheeses, this Barolo represents an excellent choice for convivial moments or an elegant tasting evening.

Winery history

The Vietti winery was founded at the end of the 19th century in Castiglione Falletto; in 1917 Mario Vietti transformed the estate into a business focused on producing quality wines. In the 1950s Alfredo Currado introduced technical and cultural innovations that led to the creation of one of Barolo’s first crus and, in 1967, to the production of Roero Arneis as a single-varietal wine. Since 2016 the property has been owned by the Krause family, who have continued the winery’s development while respecting its identity and historic vineyards.
