Description

A complex and delicious Piedmont wine by Bruno Rocca

The estate

From the 1950s onwards, the Rocca family gradually acquired plots of vines near the town of Barbaresco, in the Piedmont region.

In 1978, Bruno Rocca, a former miner, decided to produce his own wines. His ambition was to elabotate wines that express the richness and authenticity this great terroir of Italian wines.
