REVIEW

Rated 92, Monica Larner, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, August 24 2023

"The organic Tenuta Rocca 2021 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Vigna Ròca Neira reveals dark concentration with aromas of black fruit, blackberry, currant and purple rose. That richness feels smooth and heavy over the palate, and although this grape is known for its high acidity, the overall ripeness of this wine does a lot to round it off. It ages in French oak for up to 16 months. Some 10,000 bottles will hit the market this fall."
