Note di degustazione
The Albesani vineyard lies near Gallina and shares similar exposures and growing conditions. Albesani, however, is planted in part to very old vines, and there is more active limestone in the white soils and maybe a little less sand. The Roagna 2019 Barbaresco Albesani presents an impressive bouquet with a wide span of aromas that start off with blue flower and pressed rose and extend gently to iron ore and crushed stone. There is a ferrous quality as well. The wine is light and translucent in appearance, but don't underestimate the power it delivers to the palate. Albesani is especially marked in terms of its tannic structure.

The 2019 Barbaresco Albesani is a haunting, gorgeous wine. Sweet macerated cherry, kirsch, dried herbs, mint, leather and orange peel lift from the glass. A Barbaresco of exotic beauty and elegance, the 2019 Albesani has so much to offer. It's not an immediate wine, yet its charm can't be denied. This deceptively mid-weight Barbaresco just needs time to be at its best. I especially admire its inner sweetness. Cinnamon, dried red cherry, menthol and cedar linger on the beguiling, structured finish.
