    98 points/'Cellar Selection,' Wine Enthusiast: "Opening with aromas of ripe golden apples, fragrant jasmine, toasted almonds, and delicate acacia honey with a profound minerality that emerges as the wine opens. The textured, layered palate is a work of art, with apricots, baked pear, and hints of cinnamon and nutmeg leading to a stunning mineral finish. Alcohol 13%. (Oct 2024)"

    96 points Ned Goodwin, MW (JamesSuckling.com): "The only oak-inflected cuvee at the estate. Aged in 100% used tonneaux, both French and Slavonian. Superb aromas of pistachios, peaches and dried mangoes. Broad and expansive, yet funneled into a vortex of tension by freshness that sublimates any sense of obvious power. A wonderful expression of a warmer vintage that suits perfectly this compelling site. Drink or hold. (5/3/24)"

    La Rocca is situated on the slopes of Monte Rocchetta, below the medieval castle which dominates the town of Soave. The vineyard benefits from a special microclimate which in turn produces a wine with great personality, a distinctive perfume and unique characteristics. Innovative since it’s first release in 1978, it has made its mark in the area and is become a definitive symbol of quality and tradition.
