The 2001 Barolo Vigneto Rocche is another striking wine. Dark berries, mocha, spices and flowers are all woven together gracefully in this textured, incredibly appealing Barolo. Everything is simply in the right place. The Corino brothers have always had the magic touch with their Rocche, and the 2001 is no exception. This is a hugely appealing Barolo from Corino. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021.
These Baroli were made around the time brothers Renato and Giuliano Corino divided their family’s estate. Today Renato makes Baroli from Arborina and Rocche at his new winery, while Giuliano’s lineup includes wines from Arborina and Giachini, bottled under the family’s Giovanni Corino label. Both brothers make and old-vines Vecchie Vigne Barolo, but from different vineyards. Renato and Giuliano Corino split the already-bottled production of their 2001 Barolo Arborina and Rocche and sold the wines under their respective labels. Readers will find both labels on the market, but the wines themselves are identical. The two 2001 Corino Vecchie Vigne Baroli were made differently in the cellar. I have listed both Vecchie Vigne Baroli separately.
