The 2010 Barbaresco is a stunning wine that shows extraordinary elegance and balance. The celebrated qualities of the 2010 vintage shine straight through the glass. Tonic and crystalline in appearance, the bouquet is laced with small berry, dried mint, rose petal, ginger and cola. These aromas build in intensity, adding considerable complexity. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2025. Bruno Rocca is one of the protagonists of the so-called Rabaja renaissance. A handful of producers in Barbaresco have banded together to draw attention to this historic vineyard just meters below the town’s main street. Bruno’s wines are always focused and sharp. Their beautiful qualities are reflected in the etched elegance of the bird feather drawings that adorn his beautifully designed labels.
