Bruno Rocca & ODDERO

 

 

The wines of Piedmont are captivating. There is no mistaking Piedmont Nebbiolo. No other wine in the world is like it. It is the reason people often describe themselves as having been bitten by the 'Nebbiolo bug'

Whether you fit this description or you are yet to 'discover' Nebbiolo (in which case, what are you waiting for?)we have two fine examples of Nebbiolo that we believe deliver on quality and value, and deserve your attention.

2019 Barbaresco DOCG $115

"The 2019 Barbaresco is a fabulous wine at its level. It offers striking depth and intensity. Layered and racy in the glass, the 2019 possesses tremendous depth and tons of pedigree. Bright red-toned fruit, blood orange, spice, mint and white pepper all grace this wonderfully expressive Barbaresco. Vineyard sites are Currà, Fausoni, younger vines in Rabajà and San Cristoforo. The 2019 was aged 70% in cask and 30% in small wood. Drinking window: 2023-2031."

2018 Barolo DOCG $119

375ml Half Bottle $65

"The 2018 Barolo is terrific. In 2018, the Odderos were not completely convinced of the results across all their sites. Ultimately, they blended all of their vineyard designates into the straight Barolo, with the exception of the Brunate and a Riserva from Vigna Rionda. In the glass, their 2018 is captivating. Exotic aromatics, bright red berry fruit and vibrant acids give the 2018 its considerable allure. Vineyard sites are: Fiasco, Bricco Chiesa, Capalot, Bussia, Villero, Rocche di Castiglione and Monvigliero. Look for this to be one of the under the radar gems of the vintage. I loved it. In fact, the Oddero Barolo is one of the few 2018s readers should not miss. It is a very strong 'buy' in my book."
