Their success was even further highlighted by the award of Up-And-Coming Winery of the Year for 2009:
“…We decided to award [Rocca del Principe] the title of Up-and-Coming Winery of the Year. We welcome them among our Three Glasses winners with an authoritative Fiano di Avellino, which sports an authentically mineral profile, spanning petrol and smokiness, while reflecting citrus and balsamic; nuances of pink grapefruit and basil. It is followed by a taut, elegant, multi-faceted palate, with wafts of deep saltiness underpinned by full structure, while growing towards a long but still very youthful finish.” –Gambero Rosso, Italian Wines 2009.
