The berries for the 2022 Barbera d'Alba come from various vineyards owned by the Rocca family in the smallest Barbaresco growing area, San Rocco Seno d'Elvio. These plots were replanted with Nebbiolo vines after purchase in 2004.
After hand-harvesting, the Barbera grapes are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks and then matured for a short time in stainless steel tanks. The Albino Rocca Barbera D'Alba is a classic, medium-strength country wine with freshness and notes of ripe red berries, cherries and fine spice aromas. On the palate it appears dense and fruity with youthful tannins and well-integrated acidity. This Barbera D'Alba 2022 is medium-bodied with good length and a wonderful everyday wine in the best sense. Drinking window: 2021-2026
The small winery, beautifully located in the heart of the Barbaresco wine region, has achieved international status under the management of siblings Daniela, Monica and Paola. If you are looking for great Barbaresco wines, there is no way around the iconic winery these days. The continued development of the quality of their wines is the focus of the siblings' work, with the aim that the Barbaresco terroir must always be recognizable in every bottle of wine.
Food recommendation: Starters with meat, salami, pasta Bolognese and pizza.
