2019 Rocche Costamagna Barolo

Nebbiolo more

10/18/2023 - tomoem wrote: 89 points

The wine starts out as violet with a fragrant flower like nose. In mouth the wine was less complex than expected but shows a different kind of richness. The palette is dark chocolate and as such similarly flat and one dimensional. I think this wine is just ok.

2015 Rocche Costamagna Barolo Rocche Dell'Annunziata

Nebbiolo more

10/17/2023 - Stoic Warrior wrote: NR

Upon opening, some bricking noted. Decanted this one hour, but that wasn't really necessary. Nose initially roasted fruits, roses, liquorice and leather. Palate dry and sharp, initially well balanced between acidity, tannins and fruit but over the dinner hour the acidity won out.

This strikes me as a modernised Barolo, a bit lighter, less tannic and more fruit forward than in the past. Sorry, but I prefer traditional Barolo wine making.

I like this wine. Balanced, good fruit , nice tannins and acid, 13 1/2% alcohol. Great food beverage and should age very well.

2017 Rocche Costamagna Barolo Riserva Bricco Francesco Rocche Dell'Annunziata

Piemonte Visit ... end of summer 2023; 8/23/2023-9/25/2023 (Piemonte Alba area): 93+/95

A plot called Bricco Francesco within the Cru Annunziatta, upper part of the hill if I remember well.

It's just the same as Annunziata 17 with plus everything, so more mint, more eucalypt, high intensity in the glass, lots of aromas, Profumo, really ethereal wine

Palate is vibrant again, with an extra grip here, longer and tasteful, savory tannins, light density, long aftertaste of berries and mint... Fantastic wine ! Drinkable still and will keep easily 5/10

Piemonte Visit ... end of summer 2023; 8/23/2023-9/25/2023 (Piemonte Alba area): Straight 93 !

Opened wine, art the estate, no need to breathe more, all the marker from La Morra and Annunziatta in its niceness, mint, eucalypt, refined, and elegant nose

palate is vibrant, fruit forward and driven, with a light core inherent to the area and estate, Soft mild tannins, grippy texture, no harsh... It's light but good and vibrant ! Great Wine here too, on a warm vintage which annunziat and La Morra sometimes does not handle well !

I cannot get enough of the Costamagna wine snow that I know them well, they never disappoint !

Nice toasty nose, with lightly cooked red berries, not overripe, dried tomatoes, and some herbs... very nice

Palate is extremely elegant and fresh, light a s a feather, with grippy texture, great acidity, super balanced ! What Else ?

Lovely nose of rose, and balsamic notes, refined, perfumy, and elegant, quite simple in a way but spot on in an another one.

The palate is elegant, light and a bit thin, but so velvety and refined that it does not matter to have a big bold structure here, it stays in the palate and shows nice mineral texture in a lifted fruity ending ! Good

The Roccardo 2021 shows a lot of licorice, smoke, and perfumy Nebbiolo Character, it's very fresh on the palate with a bold tannic structure, long and sapid. It's ok to drink now, but better keep the 21's and drink the 20's which are riper IMO.

Great QPR Nebbiolo, keep 6/12 months to a good reward

2019 Rocche Costamagna Barbera d'Alba Superiore Rocche delle Rocche

Piemonte Visit ... end of summer 2023; 8/23/2023-9/25/2023 (Piemonte Alba area): The Barbera Rocche is a trademark wine for "Modern" barbera,

The nose shows integrated oak, floral notes, crimson notes, meaning a ripe but not bold style of aromas...

The palate is vibrant, fresh, with vivid acidity, and soft integrated tannins, it shows age with a mix of red fruits and berries ! Excellent

Piemonte Visit ... end of summer 2023; 8/23/2023-9/25/2023 (Piemonte Alba area): Those wines need a little more coverage as so many Dolcetto have been now pulled to plant more Nebbiolo ...

Pitty as the wine is a very good companion for local food, in a less fancy way as Nebbiolo, and still shows interest as it differs a lot from Barbera !

Nose here is black fruit all over the place, cassis, blackberry...

palate is a bit tonic still, its' quite young, but it has a nice fruit, it's simple and well made again ! Good price point ! less than 10 €

Tasting at the estate with a young American lady, not in the business, quite shy, but like a young wine, she opened up after a while and got carried away with the wines and discussion ! Wine is a catalyst of good vibes and new friendship !

Nose of Peach, stone fruit, classic and fragrant, technically well made and showing !

palate is med acidity, but zingy enough, with easy drinkability, well made again !

A very good 2011, better than I would have expected without signs of the warm vintages.

No notes taken but it’s a very good wine and regret not getting a few more bottles.

Barolo 2018 (Bottega Coco): Pot pourri, red cherry, a little savoury note, a little cranberry, floral top notes, touch of chalkiness. Medium plus intensity acidity, red hued fruits, grippy, slightly coarse flour textured tannins are persistent all travel long assisted by slight alcohol warmth. Simple but yum.

Highly perfumed from word go. Rose petals, tobacco, sweet earth and mint. Red fruited with good depth but gentle extraction. Plenty of savoury nuance. Bright and tangy acidity. A all-round delicious package.

2012 Rocche Costamagna Barolo Rocche Dell'Annunziata

Nebbiolo more

9/2/2023 - Irish_Wine Likes this wine: 90 points

Decanted for 1 hour 30 mins. Delicate, aromatic nose. Still very structured on the palate with a long finish. Can drink now but may soften with more time in the cellar

WSET Notes:

Pale garnet.

Medium plus intensity on the nose with red cherry, rose, tar, cinammon, dried cherry, pine, black tea and leather. Developing.

Pronounced and dry on the palate. High acidity, high tannins, high alcohol, full body, long finish.

Can drink now but has potential for ageing.

7/31/2023 - Macdog Likes this wine: NR

I enjoyed this but it’s probably the other end of the style of barolo that I like because I thought it was probably quite heavy on the oak. Either way it had a powerful coil of dark fruit. I dont think there’s any rush to drink but I think this may have been better drink earlier. Tricky to know where to drink barolo because I don’t think it’s aging trajecotry/profile is the same as bdx.

91/93

Seriously ! Again who said 2018 was not that nice and that good of a vintage... It s as perfect as one light and elegant Barolo could get.

Little red berries aromas, acidic fruits, flowers, elegant and very fragrant, its is so subtle en refined.

Palate is well defined, with savory tannins, textured and well balanced... some best producer would do a quality Nebbiolo at like 60 Euros nowadays, this a lot better than most of them... and it's Barolo vines !!!

Go and get it for like 35€

Great Wine
