Thanks to the inheritance of some of our most precious vineyards in the 1960ās our grandfather was able to start what is now our winery Albino Rocca. Albinoās 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 ā which starts in the vineyards and continues in the cellar.
