Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC 'Roccheri' 2019 (750 ml.) Marchesi di Barolo
Nebbiolo d'Alba DOC Roccheri 2019 is a refined expression crafted by Marchesi di Barolo, produced from Nebbiolo grape varieties grown on the hills of the Langhe. The vineyards are located on calcareous-clay soils of medium texture, rich in trace elements that enhance the wine’s structure, while the presence of quartz sands and silt helps shape fragrant and fruity aromas. The 2019 vintage, balanced and of high quality, allowed for full grape ripening. Traditional vinification is followed by ageing for several months in oak casks, completing its evolution and broadening the aromatic profile. The bouquet reveals elegant sensory characteristics of cherry, rose, delicate spices and mineral notes. On the palate it is harmonious and full-bodied, with fine tannins and a persistent finish.

THE COMPANY
Marchesi di Barolo is a winery with a centuries-old history of over 150 years and still represents a symbolic and reference brand in the vast world of Piedmontese wine. The winery is located in the municipality of Barolo, a tiny village of less than 700 inhabitants where the extraordinary Castle of the Marchesi stands. It is a centuries-old palace that symbolizes and is the genesis of Barolo.
In 1807, Marquis Carlo Tancredi Falletti married the French noblewoman Juliette Colbert Maulévrier, a descendant of the Sun King. Juliette was the first to recognize the potential of Nebbiolo grown in these lands and noticed how the use of wooden barrels added depth and longevity to the wine. After her husband's death at the end of the 1800s, in the absence of heirs, the estate was first managed by his wife and then taken over by Pietro and Ernesto Abbona, two young men who worked in the cellars at the foot of the castle.
After five generations, the Marchesi di Barolo is still led by the Abbona family. The Marchesi di Barolo winery extends over 200 hectares and owns land not only in the Langhe but also in Roero and Monferrato. Marchesi di Barolo aims to create unique, high-quality wines that interpret the diversity of places and are faithful readers of vintage, territory, and grapes.
