La Rocca is situated on the slopes of Monte Rocchetta, below the medieval castle which dominates the town of Soave. Fermented in a combination of stainless steel and oak vats, the grapes have sufficient intensity and flavour concentration to stand up to further barrel ageing in 500-litre and 2000-litre barrels for about 15 months on their fine lees. This ageing gives support and structure to the intense and powerful flavours that these grapes possess.
