Rocche dei Manzoni’s Barolo Riserva Vigna d’la Roul is one of the historic expressions of Nebbiolo from Monforte d’Alba, sourced from the prestigious Vigna d’la Roul, one of the winery’s signature vineyards. Made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes and aged for many years in oak, it is a Barolo of great structure, depth, and longevity.
After more than forty years of aging, it presents an intense garnet color with distinct orange hues. The nose is broad, complex, and mature, with notes of cherries preserved in alcohol, wilted roses, dried violets, tobacco, leather, tar, underbrush, truffles, sweet spices, and light balsamic notes. On the palate, it is still surprisingly lively, with integrated, silky tannins, well-defined acidity, great balance, and a very long finish that evokes ripe red fruit, licorice, damp earth, and delicate spices. The d’la Roul vineyard is known for producing Barolo with an austere and powerful character, endowed with remarkable aging potential.
It pairs beautifully with Barolo-braised beef, veal cheek, game, stewed wild boar, hare in salmì, filet mignon with white truffles, porcini mushroom risotto, tajarin with truffles, hearty roasts, and aged or blue cheeses. Recommended serving temperature: 18–20 °C, preferably after gentle aeration.
A wine of rare elegance and collectible value, it now offers the full experience of a great, mature Barolo, capable of combining power, aromatic complexity, and extraordinary evolutionary finesse.
