ABOUT THIS WINE
The 2020 Roccheviberti Barolo "Bricco Boschis" is a standout expression of Nebbiolo from the esteemed Bricco Boschis vineyard, located in the Castiglione Falletto area of Barolo. This vineyard is known for its prime location and rich, calcareous soils, which impart a distinctive character to the wine. The grapes are hand-harvested at optimal ripeness, followed by traditional fermentation with an extended maceration period to enhance the wine’s depth and complexity. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 24 months in large Slavonian oak casks, allowing the tannins to soften and the flavors to harmonize. The 2020 vintage is particularly expressive, offering a perfect balance of power and elegance, with the potential to age beautifully over the next 15-20 years. This Barolo pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes like braised short ribs, wild game, and aged cheeses.
