Price: 48,00€
DESCRIPTION
The 2020 Barbaresco Roncaglie DOCG from the Poderi Colla family perfectly expresses the nobility of the Nebbiolo grape. The Roncaglie Estate, celebrated for centuries as one of Barbaresco’s historic crus, produces grapes of remarkable consistency, capable of crafting wines of extraordinary elegance and harmony.
Hand-harvested, the grapes undergo a 12–15 day maceration at 30 °C, followed by complete malolactic fermentation. The wine is then aged 12–14 months in large Slavonian oak barrels, preserving the aromatic finesse and signature character of the cru.
Its deep garnet color preludes a complex bouquet of blackberries, spices, violet, wild rose, and forest floor. On the palate, it is rich, enveloping, and intense, supported by silky, lingering tannins. A classic and refined Barbaresco, awarded 95 points by Wine Enthusiast, combining personality, balance, and 10–15 years of aging potential.
Serve at 15–17 °C in a large glass, paired with roasted red meats, game birds, or porcini risotto. An amazing Piedmontese wine for those who appreciate depth, elegance, and sophistication.
REGION
Piedmont
Italy
Piedmont is one of the most prestigious wine regions in Italy, especially for its red wines from Nebbiolo and Barbera. Nebbiolo, the signature grape of Piedmont, is behind the greatest wines of the region, including the essential Barolo and Barbaresco.
Both made from 100% Nebbiolo, these wines differ in style. Barolo, powerful and structured, offers a broad, deep palate built for ageing. Barbaresco, more approachable when young, charms with its finesse and brightness. Two faces of the same grape, revealed by exceptional terroirs.
