ANDREA OBERTO BAROLO "ROCCHE dell´ANNUNZIATA" 2012

hodnotenia: James Suckling - 95/100

Intenzívna rubínovo červená farba s ľahkými granátovými odleskami. Náznaky dreva dokonale zladené s kvetnato korenenou arómou robia toto víno veľmi jemné a vyvážené. Evidentne tanínové pocity v ústach, ktoré sú neobvyklé pre vína z Barolo z Rocche dell'Annunziata cru vinohradov, sú dobre integrované so silnou, ale elegantnou štruktúrou.

An intense ruby-red hue with light garnet reflections. Oaky notes perfectly blending in a flowery, spicy aroma make the wineextremely fine and balanced. Evident tannic sensations in mouth,which are unusual in the Barolo wines from Rocche dell’Annunziata cru, are well-integrated with a powerful but elegant structure.

This 40 acre estate is run by Andrea Oberto and his son Fabio. Andrea founded the estate and started bottling the wines in 1978. Before then, the Obertos grew grapes and sold them off. Since 1978 the winery has grown quite a bit, but it is still family owned and operated. Andrea mainly works in the vineyard and Fabio is in charge of the winery operations. The estate is located in La Morra, one of the eleven communes of the Barolo DOCG.
