Note di degustazione
A release of 3,824 numbered bottles (including various collectors' larger formats), the 2015 Barbaresco Riserva Currà draws its fruit from the nearby village of Neive. This wine is just terrific, showing beautiful intensity and elegance. The warm and sunny 2015 growing season is easy to recognize in the broad, rich aromas and the open-knit texture of the mouthfeel. The wine opens to a dark garnet color with some brick red too. There is a point of evolution with licorice and earthy truffle, but the wine maintains its freshness and very fine tannins.

The 2015 Barbaresco Riserva Currà is deep, layered and nuanced. Orange peel, sweet tobacco, cedar and licorice give the Currà lovely aromatic complexity and nuance. Over time, the aromatics have begun to develop at a faster pace than the fruit or structure. That could be just a reflection of a moment in time, or it could be a signal of balance that is becoming precarious. Only time will tell. What is clear is that the 2015 is not showing as well as it has in the past. Today, it is surprisingly forward.
Soft contours, mid-weight structure and striking purity of fruit are some of the signatures in the 2015 Barbaresco Riserva Currà. A host of bright, floral-infused aromatics add to the wine's considerable sexiness. A wine of total allure and seduction, the 2015 is likely to drink well with minimal cellaring once it its released. It is yet another glorious wine from the Rocca family.
