2019 Barolo, San Rocco, Azelia (6 x Bottle)
The average vine age here is 65 years old, with San Rocco sitting on the northern side of Serralunga, as if driving towards Castiglione. San Rocco is always the most powerful and structured Barolo that Azelia makes, with darker fruit, bigger concentration, and a totally different grain of tannin. If Margheria is the shy one of the range then San Rocco is the showboat, there is plenty to fall in love with immediately with Azelia's San Rocco 2019. You can really feel the power here.

Vinous
The 2019 Barolo San Rocco is an attractive wine that captures the mysterious, nuanced personality of Serralunga in the understated style that runs through all these wines. Dark cherry, plum, blood orange, exotic spice, cedar and tobacco are nicely delineated. I admit I miss the San Roccos of the past, but the 2019 is undeniably attractive.
