Tasting note

A beautifully poised and expressive wine, showcasing the elegance and depth typical of this historic estate. On the nose, it offers a haunting bouquet of rose petals, dried cherries, orange zest, and hints of liquorice and sweet spice. The palate is finely structured, with silky yet firm tannins and a vibrant acidity that frames layers of red berry fruit, earthy truffle notes, and subtle minerality. There’s a wonderful tension and energy throughout, leading to a long, perfumed finish. While already deeply engaging, this Barolo promises even greater complexity and refinement with time in the cellar.

Producer

Roagna

Roagna, an esteemed Piedmont producer, is celebrated for its exceptional Barolo and Barbaresco wines. Established in the late 19th century, this family-owned estate is located in the village of Barbaresco. Roagna is renowned for its adherence to traditional winemaking methods, including long macerations and extended ageing in large oak casks. The estate practices organic farming, ensuring that their Nebbiolo grapes express the true character of the terroir. Roagna's wines are known for their depth, complexity, and remarkable ageing potential. The family's unwavering commitment to quality and authenticity has earned Roagna a distinguished place among Italy's top wine producers.

Region

Piedmont

Piedmont or Piemonte, located in northwestern Italy, is renowned for its prestigious and diverse wines. The region's varied climate and rich soils, particularly in the Langhe and Monferrato areas, are ideal for viticulture. It is famous for its robust reds, especially Barolo and Barbaresco, both made from the Nebbiolo grape, known for their complex aromas, rich tannins, and ageing potential. It also excels in Barbera, producing wines with vibrant acidity and cherry notes, and Dolcetto, offering fruit-forward, approachable reds. On the white side, Gavi, made from the Cortese grape, is known for its crisp, refreshing character. Piemonte’s blend of traditional winemaking techniques and modern innovations offers a rich and sophisticated wine experience.
