Wine Advocate, 92 Points
"This is a cozy and genuine wine made with fruit from old vines. The Bruno Rocca 2018 Barbera d'Alba opens to a velvety and richly saturated appearance. The aromas are focused for the most part on dark fruit, blackberry, sweet cherry and spice. This elegantly concentrated Barbera delivers a powerful 15% alcoholic content, and the winemaking process gives it 12 months to age in French oak. The wine finishes on a slightly sweet note with more cherry or blackberry preserves."
Vinous, 92 Points
"The 2018 Barbera d'Alba is dark, fleshy and wonderfully inviting. Black cherry, mocha, licorice, spice and new leather are all kicked up in this plush, racy Barbera from the Rocca family. This is beautifully done."
