The Montersino Cru lies at the southern tip of Barbaresco, close to Treiso, at 320 metres above sea level. The Roccas’ have a small; 0.42-hectare parcel perches at Barbaresco's highest and coolest area that makes a small amount, filling only a 2,000-litre Stockinger cask. Angelo Rocca planted the south-facing vines in 1998 on very poor clay and limestone slopes with thin layers of sandstone. The sandstone brings finesse, as does the altitude. Daniela Rocca highlights that this soil type (locally called Formazione di Lequio) resembles Barolo’s Monforte and parts of Serralunga. Always a more accessible, ‘Pinot’ style of Barbaresco, the new release is just superb, and again, a wine whose elegant, juicy and seductive personality defies the vintage.
This wine shows aromas of citrus, blood oranges, rosemary, subtle sweet spices and cinnamon. Lightly framed tannins with an almost silky texture, crisp acidity and a tight yet precise, youthful finish.
