Rocche di Castglione is one of Castiglione Falletto's great vineyards, the wisdom among locals being that nebbiolo grown on this south-east-facing slope has a beguiling aromatic character all its own.
This may have something to do with the slightly sandy soil and rock-hard substratum that produce more delicate fruit than most of the other great vineyards in the communes of Castiglione Falletto and Monforte d'Alba. Oddero owns 2/3 of a hectare of 65-year-old vines. Like the Vigna Rionda, this '98 was vinified using a long maceration and extended ageing in large Slavonian oak.
