The 2000 Barolo Vecchie Vigne shows good freshness in its color, aromas and flavors. It has retained excellent depth and power, with layers of fruit that build nicely towards the long, powerful finish. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2018.
These wines were made before brothers Renato and Giuliano Corino had divided their family’s estate. Today the Rocche is made by Renato. Each brother bottles a Vecchie Vigne (old-vine) Barolo, but the vines that inform the 2000 currently belong to Giuliano.
