Description

“Angelo” is a Barbaresco with particularity. Since the 2013 vintage we have dedicated to the memory of our father Angelo. The assembly of grapes produced from the many Nebbiolo vineyards cultivated in the area of Barbaresco and San Rocco Seno d’Elvio and the submerged cap vinification in an oak vat with a long maceration generate a wine with traditional, rich and a pleasant style.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1940
  • Oenologist: Paola Rocca, Carlo Castellengo
  • Bottles produced: 100.000
  • Hectares: 20
Our history starts in the mid 1940’s when Albino Rocca’s father Giacomo started in the wine business initially selling grapes from family vineyards and later making his own wine that was sold in demijohn.

Thanks to the inheritance of some of our most precious vineyards in the 1960’s our grandfather was able to start what is now our winery Albino Rocca. Albino’s hard work and his strong support of our father Angelo Rocca laid the foundation that created a family winemaking tradition that has grown internationally over the years.

Our history has been built together, year by year. First through the gradual acquisition of vineyards and the production of not only Nebbiolo, but also Dolcetto and Barbera in addition to our continuous effort to evolve the quality of our Barbaresco – which starts in the vineyards and continues in the cellar.
