95+ points: The 2016 Barbaresco Montefico Vigna Bric Mentina is dark, dense, powerful and super expressive. Black cherry, mocha, leather, licorice and menthol are some of the many notes that take shape in a Barbaresco that is bursting with energy. Chalk, orange peel, dried flowers and mint add layers of nuance as the wine opens up in the glass. This brooding, potent Barbaresco needs time to be at its best, but it is clearly a great wine in the making. - Vinous

About the Producer

This estate has been making outstanding, terroir-driven Barbarescos for generations. Pietro Rocca, the family's smiling and modest patriarch, is a fourth generation "vignaiolo," grape-grower. In the early 1970s, he began making and bottling Barbarescos himself. The estate's single vineyard bottlings come from two of the most coveted sites in Barbaresco. In Montestefano, which produces famously-structured Barbarescos, the Roccas own prime parcels situated at 270 m above sea level with full southern exposures.
