Riserva

Siblings Monica, Daniela and Paola Rocca introduced this tribute bottling to their father Angelo after his passing in late 2012. A co-fermentation of grapes coming from Ovello, Ronchi and Montersino, it has been ‘elevated’ to Riserva with this 2021 vintage. From warm summer berry coulis, aromas progress into pressed rose, dried lavender and bergamot. The palate is more youthful than the nose suggests, offering pristine raspberry and currants. Chiselled tannins are crisp, and radiant acidity lends precision. Beautifully moulded and persistent, the finish lingers on tobacco and tea; a timeless impression.
