Matteo Correggia Roero Roche d'Ampsej Riserva 2020

Matteo Correggia Roero Roche d'Ampsej Riserva 2020 is a refined expression of Nebbiolo from one of Piemonte’s most distinctive appellations. Sourced from the Roero’s sandy, fossil-rich soils, it combines elegance, structure, and aromatic precision in a style that reflects both the grape and the region at their best.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright ruby hue with garnet reflections, typical of Nebbiolo with youth and concentration. The nose is layered and expressive, with aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, licorice, spice, and a subtle earthy note. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with firm, fine-grained tannins, lively acidity, and a long, savory finish. The 2020 vintage offers both immediate charm and the framework for further development, with the potential to age gracefully for many years, gaining complexity and softer texture over time.

Production
Roche d'Ampsej comes from vineyards in Roero, where sandy soils and a temperate continental climate give Nebbiolo a more lifted, fragrant profile than in some neighboring zones. The grapes are carefully harvested to preserve freshness and ripeness, then vinified with traditional attention to extraction, structure, and balance, followed by maturation in wood to build depth without masking the variety’s character.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with rich Piedmontese dishes such as braised beef, tajarin with ragù, game birds, truffle dishes, and aged cheeses. Serve at around 16-18°C, and consider decanting for 1-2 hours to allow the aromas to open and the tannins to soften.
