Roagna Barbaresco Albesani is a must-try for wine enthusiasts looking for a high-quality, authentic expression of Barbaresco.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Roagna's Barbaresco Albesani is a superbly structured and delicately aromatic expression of Nebbiolo from the Albesani vineyard in the Langhe region of Piedmont.On the nose are delicate aromas of rose petal, raspberry, licorice, and a hint of smoke. On the palate, the wine is well-balanced with bright acidity and tannins, culminating in a long and complex finish. A truly remarkable expression of Nebbiolo that will benefit from further cellaring.
