Barbera d’Alba DOC 2019

Roagna | Piedmont
Az. Agr. I Paglieri | Loc. Paglieri 9 | IT 12050 Barbaresco

The grapes for this exceptional Barbera come from the single vineyard Pira in Castiglione Falletto - where the best Barbaresco and Barolo in the region usually come from. Roagna's Barbera d'Alba is a deep, serious wine with an exuberant bouquet of ripe red fruit, flowers, spices and crushed gravel. The palate is clear and precise with flavours of redcurrants and cherries, underpinned by the typical Barbera acidity and medium-weight tannins. In its overall composition, it is one of the most fascinating, elegant and at the same time most classic representatives of its kind and demands all the attention and leisure of the taster - the reward follows on the foot.

"The 2019 Barbera d'Alba is a wine of exquisite finesse. Deep and pliant yet not at all heavy, it exudes balance. Crushed flowers, mint, blood orange, raspberry and sweet spice all meld together. Although 2019 does not have the power of some previous years, it more than makes up for that with its polished, utterly sensual personality." Vinous
