Tasting notes
Deeper than the other cru’s, with a dense palate and a little more dark fruit. Great concentration, vibrance and texture.
"Albino Rocca's wines are characterised by beautifully pristine aromas and a seductive texture. In this example, I was arrested by a vibrant top note of intense redcurrant and violets and very juicy acidity: I love its brightness and intensity. It needs time but has fantastic potential." 95 points, Susan Hulme MW, Decanter (May 2019)
