Barbaresco 2023

The Barbaresco DOCG Riserva "Rabajà" by Bruno Rocca stands as the absolute crown jewel of the estate and one of the most legendary, benchmark expressions across the entire appellation. Sourced from the world-renowned Rabajà cru—widely revered as a premier grand cru of Barbaresco—this elite wine is born from old vines rooted in calcareous-marl soils rich in silt, sand, and clay, boasting a privileged South/South-West exposure and a unique microclimate that balances refreshing hill breezes with optimal sun exposure.

Cellar protocols embrace meticulous craftsmanship and uncompromising standards: fermentation and extended skin maceration take place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats. The wine then matures for approximately 20 to 24 months in French oak barriques (partially new), followed by an extensive, patient period of bottle refinement. Rabajà is a monumental, austere Barbaresco, seamlessly merging breathtaking structural power with peerless aromatic finesse and velvety tannins.
