Langhe Nebbiolo 2024

The Langhe DOC Nebbiolo by Orlando Rocca represents the liquid proof of a young winemaking dream built on grit, technical study, and raw passion. Without centuries of winemaking lineage behind him, Orlando pursued his calling at Alba's legendary Umberto I Enological School. The turning point came in 2020 at age sixteen: listening to online school lectures via headphones while working the family's small Bussia plot, he turned the vineyard into an open-air laboratory, waking up before dawn to manage pump-overs and punch-downs.

Crafted from 100% Nebbiolo cultivated with meticulous artisanal care, this bottling captures Orlando's youthful yet highly technical vision. Cellar operations emphasize raw varietal purity and Monforte d'Alba terroir character, delivering a classic, fresh, and deeply fragrant Nebbiolo underpinned by fine structural tension. It is an honest, vibrant, and food-friendly red that speaks of generational passion and dedication.
