Rosso Di Rocca Langhe Nebbiolo

Blend of 90% Nebbiolo & 10% Cab Franc, Nebbiolo from a newly purchased vineyard at Magliano Alfieri in the Roero, note Barbera dropped from blend. Ruby with aromas of red fruit and sweet floral scents. On the palate flavors of cherry & blackberry with cacao, licorice and spicy notes. Full tart biting tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit and earthy mineral character.

The 2019 Langhe Nebbiolo Rosso di Rocca is a perfumed, bright red to drink now and over the next year or two, while the crushed red berry fruit and floral notes remain vibrant. This mid-weight, aromatic Langhe Nebbiolo is all charm. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2021)

The easiest drinking Nebbiolo I could’ve imagined.

A beautiful garnet color, with a slight orange tinge. Cherry fruit, but dry with nice structure. 13.5% alcohol, so it feels a bit boozier than the lighter wines we tend to drink, but quite lovely. We ate it with a black eyed pea salad and ravioli with a celery leaf pesto, and it was totally up for the job.

Excellent Nebbiolo, great food wine worked well with salmon

Not over fruity

3.3. Relatively inexpensive Italian red from the Piedmont. Fruity and with subtle tannins. On sale for $18.69. Regularly $21.99.

Bit young, tart fruit forward

Necessary to decant it for more than 2 hours, then we can enjoy its concentration and black currant, a bit earthy flavor Albino Rocca Rosso di Rocca Langhe Nebbiolo @, Boboli, 210311

Got a good deal on this inexpensive wine and drank it young! Tannic but with bright berry too.
