2014 Barbaresco Albesani, Roagna

The first vintage of this wine and it does not disappoint. Incredibly tightly wound and with razor sharp focus, the wine also demonstrates floral and hints of blood orange and wild herbs.

Tasting notes

The 2014 Barbaresco Albesani is frankly on another level relative to the other Barbarescos Luca Roagna has recently added to his range. Explosive in its aromatic intensity and ample on the palate, the Albesani will leave readers who enjoy classically built wines weak at the knees. Everything that makes Nebbiolo so alluring comes through in this stunning Barbaresco. Freshly cut flowers, mint, chalk and sweet red cherries all race through this delicious and very promising Barbaresco. This is just a great expression of Nebbiolo.
