2020 Albino Rocca Barbaresco Ovello Vigna Loreto

The 2020 Albino Rocca Barbaresco Ovello Vigna Loreto is a beautifully structured and deeply expressive single-vineyard Barbaresco from the renowned Ovello cru in Barbaresco. Crafted in a refined traditional style, the wine combines Nebbiolo’s signature perfume and tension with impressive depth, mineral complexity and ageing potential. The nose reveals red cherry, dried rose and blood orange layered alongside sweet spice, tobacco and delicate earthy notes, giving the wine remarkable elegance and sophistication.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine, chalky tannins, vibrant natural acidity and beautifully focused red berry fruit. Layers of cherry, cranberry and savoury spice are balanced by mineral freshness and subtle earthy depth, finishing long, structured and finely detailed with exceptional poise and persistence.
