"From one of La Morra's best-performing sites, the 2011 Barolo Rocche dell'Annunziata is a beautifully elegant and graceful expression. There is power and forward momentum here for sure, but the real takeaway is the poised and feminine manner in which this wine carries itself over the palate. The bouquet has reverted to some aged Nebbiolo flavors with licorice, tar and pressed blue flower. The tannins are a little softer here. This is a delicious wine."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
The 'King of Wines,' a powerful, tannic and perfumed Nebbiolo from Piedmont's Langhe hills, celebrated for tar-and-roses aromatics and extraordinary aging potential.
Produces pale but powerfully tannic and perfumed reds with tar, rose and cherry notes. The grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco, it is among the most age-worthy in the world.
