Note di degustazione
The 2019 Barbaresco Cottá is stellar. This is the first year the Cottá was vinified in oak (as opposed to steel), with about ten days of submerged cap maceration at the end. It offers up an exciting mélange of dark cherry, plum, spice, cedar, tobacco, incense and mocha that build into the heady, explosive finish. Medium in body, with striking depth, the Cottá is superb.

The Albino Rocca 2019 Barbaresco Cottà (with only 2,000 bottles made) shows a medium light consistency with pretty ruby and garnet highlights. Looking back at my past notes, it seems that the light color and luminous appearance is almost always a defining factor of this pretty wine. This Barbaresco follows through to the palate with exceptionally soft and silky sensations with subtle berry aromas, rose, licorice and tea leaf. There is an accessible side to Cottà for sure, but it would also be interesting to watch its future bottle evolution.
Neive. Pale ruby. Youthful, leafy red-fruit nose with minerally stony hints. Full raspberry fruit palate with firm, slightly drying tannins that play up a little on the finish, and an indication that this needs more time. (WS)
