La Ca Nova er ejet og drevet af Marco Rocca. Her produceres traditionelle vine og de to CRU barbaresco fra Montestefano og Montefico høster flot internatinal anderkendelse år efter år. Basis barbaresco er elegant og alle med en rigtig god pricevalue.

La Ca' Nova is, in my view, the single most under-the-radar winery in all of Piedmont. The wines just keep getting better and better, yet prices remain exceedingly modest, especially within the context of today’s market. Marco Rocca’s 2019 Barbarescos are every bit as monumental as they were last year. The 2020s are also very fine and pure but appear to have a bit less volume and overall structure. Long macerations with submerged cap fermentation and aging in cask are the norm. In 2020, Rocca shortened the period of extraction by a few days vis-à-vis the 2019s, and also bottled the wines a bit earlier. I left bottles of the 2020s opened for a few days, over which they just got better and better. I can’t recommend these wines highly enough.
