- **Producer:** Roagna
- **Style:** Red
- **Denomination:** Barbaresco DOCG
- **Grape:** Nebbiolo
- **Production area:** Municipality of Barbaresco; mainly Pajè grapes blended with Asili and Montefico.
- **Vinification:** Each vineyard is picked once the grapes reach full physiological maturity, judged by the ripeness of the pips; harvest is by hand into small crates, and the fruit is given two manual selections before vinification. Fermentation runs about ten days in wooden vats with a pied de cuve of indigenous yeasts, followed by an ancient submerged-cap maceration of about 60 to 70 days, then roughly five years of ageing in neutral oak and concrete vats.
