This is just the fourth vintage of this wine, produced from a parcel owned by a Roagna family friend. Antonio Galloni writes: “Barbaresco Albesani is frankly on another level relative to the other Barbarescos Luca Roagna has recently added to his range.” The chalky soils contribute to the wine’s fragrant aromatics.
Over the last decade, Luca Roagna has established himself as one of the stars of Piedmont, ever willing to take risks in the vineyard and cellar to improve his already spectacular wines. To taste his wines upon release is a visceral experience; to open a bottle after a decade is a revelation. At Ellis Wharton Wines we are proud to work with this trailblazing estate, bringing Luca’s brilliant wines from the Roagna cellar to your table.
