Description
Description
One for the cellar. This single vineyard Barolo reveals 'cherries in Kirsch' and Christmas cake aromas and flavours matched to a tight, linear frame. Intense and balanced, with firm tannins and a long finish.
We recommend storing the bottles on their sides in a cool place while patiently waiting.

Rocca Giovanni is a small family winery located in the Langhe hills of Monforte d’Alba in Piedmont. Meaning “the foot of the mountain”, Piedmont is framed by the Alps and the Appenines, bordering Switzerland and France. The Piedmontese are unrivalled in their devotion to their craft, and the Rocca family are no exception.
Singular grape varieties have been grown for generations by the Roccas, in selected areas of land particularly suited to wine-making. Father and son, Giovanni and Maurizio, monitor every stage in the winemaking process, from the cultivation of the vines right through to the cellaring of the bottles. They supply us with the classic Italian “King of Wine”, Barolo, from the approved communes, as well as Nebbiolo, Barbera d’Asti, Dolcetto and a very pleasant Chardonnay.
