Description

Here’s a fully original, website-ready tasting note for the Rosso, 1976 — Roffo della Torre, including contextual information and the refined 2–3 day decanting instructions:

Rosso, 1976 — Roffo della Torre

This mature Rosso comes from Roffo della Torre, a historic Italian estate known for producing balanced, age-worthy red wines that reflect the character of their local terroir. The 1976 vintage displays a deep garnet-red colour with brick highlights, showing nearly five decades of careful evolution.

On the nose, it reveals aromas of dried red and black cherries, plum, gentle spice, leather, and subtle earthy notes of forest floor. The palate is smooth and harmonious, with softened tannins supporting flavours of stewed dark fruits, hints of cocoa, and delicate herbal undertones. The finish is long, balanced, and elegant, highlighting the depth, finesse, and traditional character of a mature Rosso.

Decanting: Stand the bottle upright for 2–3 days prior to opening to allow any sediment to settle. Decant slowly and carefully through a fine strainer, allowing 1–2 hours of gentle aeration before serving at 16–18°C. A fragile cork is very common with older bottles, where the wine has been in prolonged contact with the cork over many decades. We therefore recommend straining any cork fragments during the decanting process.
