Rocche Costamagna
ロッケ・コスタマニャ
Six generations of stewardship over the historic Rocche dell'Annunziata cru.
Founded in 1841 when Luigi Costamagna received an official license to sell wine from his own vineyards in La Morra, Rocche Costamagna is one of the most historic estates in the Barolo zone, now led by Alessandro Locatelli, the sixth generation of the family. The winery has cultivated the celebrated 'Rocche dell'Annunziata' cru — one of La Morra's most prestigious vineyards — for over two centuries, following a traditional approach of long macerations and extended aging in large Slavonian oak casks to preserve the purity and elegance of Nebbiolo.
