“With fruit from La Morra, where this winery is located, the Andrea Oberto 2017 Barolo Rocche dell'Annunziata is dark and enriched, all thanks to the heat and dry growing conditions of this growing cycle. You taste the extra fruit power and concentration with baked cherry and blackberry. The mouthfeel is textured and rich, imparting more muscle than grace at this point. That appears to be a common trait found in Nebbiolo from 2017. Only 3,900 bottles were made.”
