NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Rocche Costamagna Rocche dell'Annunziata Barolo DOCG is an exquisite and elegant expression of the noble Nebbiolo grape.Its deep ruby color hints at the complexity of the aromas of blackberries, spices, leather, and earth that waft forth from the glass. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and concentrated, with ripe, chewy tannins that provide a pleasant texture and structure. Its long and silky finish is marked by intense notes of cherry, licorice, and tobacco, making this a truly remarkable Barolo.
