Delicious ripe plums, pomegranate, light coffee, autumnal leafy character & elegant spice with very attractive complexity. The palate delivers a superb array of finely detailed tannins and impeccably concentrated red cherries that have pitch-perfect ripeness. Round and chewy tannins and a rich, flavorful finish.This 2019 Rocche Costamagna Barolo is quite impressive!

Intense flavors of cherry and raspberry are framed by earth, wild herb and tar notes in this open-knit red. Dense tannins provide a backdrop, while the core of fruit persists through the long, mouthwatering finish. Shows terrific balance and complexity.
