Note di degustazione
Here is an exciting new submission from Roagna. The 2016 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione (with 2,713 bottles made) shows quite a few sides to its character. There is a slightly softer side with ripe fruit that dovetails into a spicy side in which you get a clear whiff of white peppercorn. From there, we venture into earthy aromas with iron ore, rose and dried violet. Lastly, there is crushed stone or granite. All of these various facets emerge over a very clean, long and polished mouthfeel.

A new wine in this range, the 2016 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is sure to delight Roagna fans. It offers a captivating mix of pliant fruit, soaring aromatics and structure. The 2016 is silky and sensual to the core, as wines from this site tend to be. There is a feeling of translucency here that is so beguiling. The Rocche di Castiglione emerges from a parcel just above Roagna's Cascina Pira.
