Barolo DOCG Vigna le Rocche Riserva 2016

Riserva “Le Rocche del Falletto” is a powerful and monumental wine, very important, produced only in the best years.It is born froma prestigious cru and aged in big oak barrels for 36 months. The intense, robust and concentrated aromatic profile make it a great wine for ageing for a very long time.

“this is a beautiful wine that unfolds slowly with amazing intensity and complexity, delivering delicate notes of violets and candied orange peel that cede softly to darker tones of licorice, dried blackberry and savory spice. Give the wine the time it needs to open in the glass. This vintage flaunts its most elegant side, with fine tannins and soft fruity fiber that remains everlasting and pure. This estate is known for taking its biggest chances in the so-called off vintages. Betting on 2014 has turned out to be a brilliantly contemplated move”
