Bruno Rocca Barbaresco Riserva 'Curra' 2013

Wine Region: Curra, Barbaresco, Italy

Tasting Notes: The dark exuberance of the fruit and the soft textural richness of the mouthfeel. Both 2012 and 2015 are warm vintages in the Barbaresco region. But this wine is further along its evolutionary track, and you can recognize those budding aromas of licorice, tar and campfire ash as a result. The elegant finish offers smoky flavors and silky, integrated tannins. Drink in 2022-2035. 

Food Pairing: Mushroom Risotto
