'Big' d Big 'Barolo by Rocche dei Manzoni is made from only Nebbiolo grapes from the Mosconi area vineyards. Powerful but elegant wine, it is a Nebbiolo aged for about 3 years in cask and for another year in the bottle, before being marketed. Its aromas of cherry, blackberry, violet, vanilla and roasted make it an intense and complex wine. On the palate, this wine from Piedmont has a velvety consistency, although the tannins are still quite strong, given the youth of the wine. Wine to keep, potentially up to 30 years.

Rocche dei Manzoni
In the suggestive scenery of the Langhe, a territory renowned for its breathtaking beauty and its prestigious wines, the Rocche dei Manzoni winery stands out. This winemaking jewel of Piedmont stands out for its innovative and experimental approach, skillfully blending tradition and avant-garde. Born from the desire to explore new frontiers in the world of wine, Rocche dei Manzoni has become a point of reference for the production of Barolo and classic method sparkling wines, without ever losing sight of the bond with the territory and its roots.

THE COMPANY
Rich in history and blessed with the best locations, the vineyards of Podere Rocche dei Manzoni are all situated within the municipality of Monforte d'Alba. Here our products are born.
The wines of Podere Rocche Dei Manzoni realize a perfect marriage of tradition and innovation.
The high quality of Podere Rocche dei Manzoni's products is guaranteed not only by meticulous vinification processes and a constant search for improvement but also by a strenuous work performed in the vineyard, through short pruning and thinning out of grapes to obtain very low output of grape/hectare.
