Aurelio Settimo Barolo Rocche Dell’annunziata

Rocche Dell’Annunziata is considered as being one of the finest growing areas for Barolo wine. Fertile, clay heavy-calcareous soil, south, south-west exposure, produces a rich, full-bodied, fragrant, elegant Barolo.  Here the vineyards look out over the Torriglione hamlet – in the shelter of a “hollow” lying between the hills of San Martino and Cerequio-Brunate .  The south, south-west  exposure allows sun from early morning till late in the afternoon.
