2019 Bruno Rocca, Barbaresco Rabajà, Piedmont, Italy

This small family owned vineyard is one of the top producers in Piedmont. Since the early eighties more and more of the best Piedmonte producers have begun to make single-vineyard wines, and Bruno Rocca is one of the stars. Restrained aromas of liquorice, tar, black pepper, watermelon intensity and minerality in depth, with a slightly herbal note, are followed by a feminine palate with a peach skin character. The delicacy of the fruit is deliciously woven with lifted tension and very elegant tannins.
