Cascina Roccalini Barbaresco DOCG 2017

The grapes come from the oldest vines on the Roccalini field. Some of the sticks are 55-60 years old, and they are used for Riserva when Paolo makes Riserva in extremely rare cases.

The wine traditionally has a very long maceration period, i.e. + 45 days in classic cement tanks, and subsequently the wine has been aged for 18 months in 30 hl oak barrels from Mittelberger in South Tyrol.

The wine is typical Roccalini with a nose of strawberries, dark roses and ripe cherries.

In the mouth, a fantastic balance and juiciness is felt, and the tannins are very elegant and youthful. The finale is intense and long.

An extremely durable wine that will improve over the next 10 years.
