- TASTING NOTE: "The 2022 Dolcetto d'Alba Trifolè is a very pleasant, easygoing wine to drink now and over the next few years. Floral and fruity, with lovely balance, the 2022 is impeccably done. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, mint and lavender build nicely into the finish. This laid back Dolcetto is a charmer." 90 Points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
- ABOUT THE WINE: Vinified and aged in stainless steel.
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: In the late 1950s, Bruno Rocca’s father Francesco, and his wife Maria Adelaide purchased a vineyard in Rabajà and moved there from the centre of Barbaresco. This marked the beginning, in particular for Bruno, who from a very early age began to view the grapes as the true expression of the land. In 1978 Bruno decided to carve out a new direction, rather than selling the grapes to large barbaresco producers, Bruno began to sell bottled wine on the Italian and world stage. The philosophy of wine as the natural expression of the Barbaresco territory was widely appreciated, and with the estate’s gradual growth came the purchase of new plots of land and the expansion of the cellar, which continues to today with Bruno’s children Francesco and Luisa now both closely involved in all aspects of the wine production and sales. The wines under Bruno were firmly in the modernist camp of production, but the influence of his children has seen large format and neutral oak, and longer, slower ferments come into play. The resulting wines are more classic but the retention of some barrique also gives a nod to the past and the splicing of the two philosophies is perfectly handled. Today the wines are some of the most elegant, gorgeous examples coming out of Barbaresco.
