Note di degustazione
Of the three single-vineyard Barbarescos produced by Luca Roagna, Gallina tends to be finest and the most delicate. This parcel was leased up until one year ago when Luca was finally able to buy it. It measures one hectare and is characterized by sandy soils. These conditions give rise to floral perfumes with sweet, soapy aromas of lavender and lilac. The 2019 Barbaresco Gallina is underpinned by a long sense of silkiness and finesse. The tannins are sweet, and the wine shows ample energy before closing with polished intensity.

The 2019 Barbaresco Gallina is a very pretty, almost ethereal wine for a site that often yields more fruity Barbaresco. The aromatics are especially open at this stage, even with its recent bottling. Silky tannins and mid-weight structures are the signatures. Dark red cherry, leather, spice and menthol linger on the sublime finish. It would certainly not be a crime to drink this on the younger side.
Informazioni sul produttore
Roagna is one of Italy’s finest estates, producing top, single-vineyard Nebbiolos in Barbaresco and Barolo. The estate’s Crichët Pajé Barbaresco is one of the rarest fine wine cuvées in Piedmont with fewer than 2,000 bottles produced each year.
