Vintage Character Langhe DOC 2024 Albino Rocca Nebbiolo Rosso di Rocca captures the lively spirit of Piedmont’s famed Nebbiolo grape, offering a fresh and approachable take on this classic variety. The 2024 vintage in the Langhe saw a temperate spring followed by a warm, dry summer, resulting in wines with vibrant fruit, balanced acidity, and refined tannins.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing In the glass, this Nebbiolo reveals enticing aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, and rose petals, complemented by subtle notes of licorice and earth. The palate is supple and juicy, with silky tannins and a persistent, crunchy finish, making it an excellent companion for food. Pair it with grilled lamb chops, mushroom risotto, or braised pork belly for a savory touch; its bright acidity and delicate structure also shine alongside classic Italian cheeses such as Taleggio or young Pecorino, highlighting the wine’s fruit and floral nuances.
