About this wine
A sweet, lightly sparkling (frizzante) Moscato d'Asti made from 100% Moscato Bianco grown on the family's Piedmont vineyards. Low in alcohol and vibrantly aromatic, it showcases the grape's signature notes of peach, orange blossom, and fresh grapes.
An easy, low-alcohol introduction to Italian sweet wines — never cloying thanks to its natural acidity.
Sommelier's Note
"A palate cleanser after the estate's tannic Barbaresco lineup — proof the Rocca family can do delicate as well as powerful."
Food Pairings
A classic match for fruit tarts, panettone, and mild blue cheeses; delightful on its own as an aperitif or dessert wine.
When to drink it
Brunches, light desserts, or as a celebratory aperitif in place of Champagne.

バルバレスコ
Barbaresco
RedNebbiolo
Albino Rocca's classic estate Barbaresco, blending Nebbiolo from several family-owned parcels across the communes of Barbaresco and San Rocco Seno d'Elvio. True to the family's minimal-intervention philosophy, it is aged in large Slavonian oak botti rather than small French barriques, favoring purity and elegance over overt oak influence.
バルバレスコ・ロンキ
Barbaresco Ronchi
RedNebbiolo
A single-vineyard Barbaresco from Ronchi, the Rocca family's most historic vineyard with some vines over 70 years old. The soil is marl with a prevalence of limestone and thin veins of clay and sand, yielding the most structured and long-lived wine in the estate's range.
バルバレスコ・モンテルシーノ
Barbaresco Montersino
RedNebbiolo
A single-vineyard Barbaresco from the Montersino cru in the hills of San Rocco Seno d'Elvio (Treiso), planted at higher altitude with full southern exposure. The soil is calcareous clay with sandy layers and sandstone. The family began bottling Montersino as a separate cru starting with the 2012 harvest.
バルバレスコ・コッタ
Barbaresco Cottà
RedNebbiolo
A single-vineyard Barbaresco from the small Cottà vineyard in the commune of Neive, purchased by the family in the 1970s and vinified separately for the first time in 2015. The Tortonian marine soil imprint of this historic parcel gives complex, long-lived wines, matured for at least 20 months in German and Austrian oak casks.
バルバレスコ・オヴェッロ・ヴィーニャ・ロレート
Barbaresco Ovello Vigna Loreto
RedNebbiolo
A rare single-vineyard Barbaresco from Vigna Loreto, a historic parcel on the western side of the celebrated Ovello cru, one of the oldest and largest crus in Barbaresco. Planted on a southwest-facing, sandy slope overlooking the Tanaro river at around 240 meters, the vines are 35-45 years old. Vinified separately since the 1980s, only around 3,000 bottles are produced each year from just 0.5 hectares.
バルバレスコ・アンジェロ
Barbaresco Angelo
RedNebbiolo
The estate's top selection, dedicated since the 2013 vintage to the memory of Angelo Rocca, who expanded the family's holdings in the 1980s before his passing in 2012. Blended from Nebbiolo grown across several vineyards in Barbaresco and San Rocco Seno d'Elvio, it undergoes submerged-cap fermentation in oak vat with long maceration, followed by a minimum of 20 months maturation in German and Austrian oak casks. Starting with the 2021 harvest, it was classified as a DOCG Riserva.
