Roagna, Langhe Rosso 2017

Roagna is at the top of the quality pyramid in Piemonte. Its wines are unapologetically traditional, with structure and ageability reserved for the region’s best old-school producers. Their Langhe bottling is made with grapes from the Pira vineyard in Barolo and Roagna’s home vineyard of Paje in Barbaresco. It comes from younger vines, which makes for a lighter, fresher wine that’s meant to be enjoyed young.

Tastes like: Red cherry, dried roses, mushroom.

How to drink: Ideal with pizza, but similarly delicious alongside risotto or mushroom agnolotti.
