Tasting Notes: Rocche di Castiglione displays elegance, fine tannins, a persistent taste and minerality. It accurately reflects the characteritics of the soil of origin. Its tannins develop from a rugged soil, sandy and calcareous. Ruby red in colour with light garnet reflections, delicate notes of spices and liquorice and a desirable bouquet of red berries. Extraordinarily long finish.
Estate History: The Oddero family has been present in the territory of La Morra since at least the 18th century. Giovanni Battista Oddero and his sons Lorenzo and Luigi began to vinify grapes in the township of La Morra between the 18th and 19th centuries. It is through their efforts that Oddero wines were introduced to the rest of the world. The history of the winery today is tied to that of Mariacristina, who joined the winery in 1997 and now runs it with her son Pietro and niece Isabella.
