Red
Roncaglia
By Deltetto, Roero, Piemonte, Italy
From the Roncaglia MGA in the hills of Castellinaldo d'Alba, an area especially suited to black grape varieties, particularly Nebbiolo, with clay-rich soil giving structured wines with marked tannins. The 2019 vintage carries an exclusive artist's label by Andrea Barzaghi, limited to 1,992 bottles and 50 magnums.
Tasting notes
Ruby red color with garnet reflections; complex nose with floral notes of rose, red fruit, hints of clove and licorice. Important but well-balanced tannin in the mouth, very long finish.
