Influencer Pick Bruno Rocca Barbaresco Rabajà 2018 Add To Cart [PndCE0uv]

(not yet reviewed, 2016 review for reference)

96 points - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, June 2020

Bruno Rocca is a protagonist of the Rabajà cru and has done much to bring this growing site to the world stage. The 2016 Barbaresco Rabajà is a determined wine that shows firm but measured power when given ample time to open. It just keeps going with energy, momentum and personality. The wine's aromas spill over to reveal wild berry, rose hip, crushed stone and powdered licorice. Rabajà gives the impression of being fresher in terms of mouthfeel, with pretty endnotes of aniseed and dried mint. Like the Currà, this wine ages in barrel, botte and bottle over the course of nearly three years before its commercial release. - Monica Larner
