2020 Bruno Rocca Barbaresco Curra
Est. range:
Tax included.
Michaela Morris - Decanter
Exudes the gorgeous perfumes that permeate the entire range, reaching even greater complexity here. Pine, nutmeg, orange blossom and grapefruit peel lace the strawberry canvas. There is a joyful buoyance to the fruit as a blood orange juiciness streams through the palate. Tannins are fine, finessed and intricately embedded. As seductive as this is now, it promises more to come. The estate's Riservas were born with the new generation – Bruno’s children Luisa and Francesco. The latter is now at the winemaking helm. Made from two selected parcels, this sees a whole-berry fermentation with 50 days of maceration. Ageing is in 16-hectolitre French oak casks.

The 2020 Bruno Rocca Barbaresco Curra is a true expression of the Piedmont region in Italy. On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherries and raspberries mingle with notes of violets and spice. The colour is a deep ruby red, hinting at the wine's complexity and depth. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with a perfect balance between tannins and acidity. Flavours of dark cherry, blackberry, and plum are complemented by hints of licorice and tobacco. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a satisfying warmth on the palate. This vintage from Bruno Rocca is a testament to their expertise and commitment to quality winemaking. Enjoy now or cellar for future enjoyment. Pair with hearty dishes such as roasted lamb or aged cheeses.
