The 2007 Big ’d Big displays a mature bouquet of rose, dried cherry, tar, licorice, and underbrush, with subtleties of sweet herbs and tobacco. The palate is firm and structured, featuring fine-grained tannins, persistent acidity, and savory red fruit layered with earth and mineral notes. Though aged, the wine retains energy and elegance—complex and expressive, with a long savory finish that speaks of its Barolo heritage.
Podere Rocche dei Manzoni, located in Monforte d’Alba, is a boutique Barolo estate committed to producing expressive, terroir-driven Nebbiolo wines. They farm their vineyards with care, using traditional methods, low yields, and selective harvesting, with the aim of creating elegant yet powerful wines. Their “Big ’d Big” bottling is drawn from the named cru “Big ’d Big” in Mosconi, offering a more structured, concentrated style. The estate’s philosophy embraces both continuity and experimentation, blending respect for Barolo tradition with modern precision.
