2010 Barolo Rocche

Tasting notes
The 2010 Barolo Torriglione (tasted in a magnum) represents a new wine for Roberto Voerzio. He actually tells me that he prefers the wines as two separate expressions rather than one blended wine. This was a result he did not expect since he was used to tasting them together. The Torriglione does stand out with its own character thanks to the extra firmness it shows in the mouth. This wine has great potential for long aging. Drink: 2017-2035.

Another top Barolo for 2010 with pure aromas of sliced plum and rose petal with hints of Spanish cedar. Full body, with ultra fine tannins and a juicy and fruity finish. Better in 2017.
Antonio Galloni, January 2014 Voerzio's 2010 Barolo Rocche dell'Annunziata is strikingly beautiful. This is the first vintage in which there is no Torgglione, and it shows in the wine's remarkable finesse, nuance and detail. The 2010 boasts striking aromatics and a weightless, utterly captivating personality supported by the finest, most silky Nebbiolo tannins imaginable. This is the Musigny of Barolo and a wine of total pleasure.
