Roagna Barolo Rocche di Castiglione 2020

Roagna Barolo Rocche di Castiglione 2020 is a highly regarded single-vineyard Barolo that showcases the precision and depth for which Roagna is known. Sourced from one of Castiglione Falletto’s most celebrated crus, it combines classical Nebbiolo structure with remarkable finesse and site expression, making it a compelling choice for collectors and Barolo lovers alike.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the pale garnet hue typical of fine Nebbiolo, with brightness and clarity that hint at its elegance rather than sheer weight. The nose is layered and refined, offering red cherry, rose petal, wild herbs, dried citrus peel, anise, and earthy mineral notes, with subtle spice building in the background. On the palate, it is precise and firmly structured, with taut acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a long, savory finish. The wine is built for patience and will continue to develop nuance over many years, gaining complexity, softness, and tertiary depth with cellaring.

Production
Rocche di Castiglione is a prized Barolo cru, known for its calcareous marl soils and excellent exposure, which help Nebbiolo achieve aromatic detail, freshness, and strong aging potential. Roagna is known for working in a traditional, low-intervention style, with careful hand-harvesting and a vinification approach that emphasizes native character, slow extraction, and long maturation to preserve the identity of the vineyard.

Food & Serving
This Barolo is an excellent match for rich, flavorful dishes such as braised beef, veal shank, game, mushroom risotto, or aged hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for at least 2–3 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to open gradually.
