"Blackberry, blueberry, tar, and asphalt aromas follow through to a full body with fresh herb, olive skin and grape skin character on the palate with a powdery tannin-driven finish. This is one that will age really well. Please be patient because it is already so excellent but it will be so much better in two to four years and beyond."
Winemaker Notes:
"A perennial powerhouse wine, the 2021 Rochioli Riverblock is a showstopper. Layers of dark berry fruit and notes of cedar dominate the nose. Forest-like notes of sous bois and dried herbs add a depth that is compelling and utterly mind-boggling. The Old River Block was planted in 1989 with cuttings from the oldest vines on the property dating back to the 1960s. Often the berries are tiny and that translates into a wine with tremendous extract. Vibrant and fresh in the mouth, the extract is so perfectly balanced that the palate remains light on its feel while completely saturating the palate. Wow!"
