Roagna Barbaresco Albesani 2019

Historical geographical mention in the municipality of Neive, with soil characterized by calcareous clay. Part of the plot is made up of old vines, planted in the 1950s, and part of more recent vines, dating back to the 1980s-90s.

98 Points - 

There's fluidity and viscosity to the texture in this red, setting the stage for its macerated cherry, strawberry, rose hip, hay and eucalyptus flavors. This features an underlying mineral element too, which works in tandem with the vibrant acidity and firm, refined tannins. Long and complex. Best from 2028 through 2050.
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Albesani vineyard lies near Gallina and shares similar exposures and growing conditions. Albesani, however, is planted in part to very old vines, and there is more active limestone in the white soils and maybe a little less sand. The Roagna 2019 Barbaresco Albesani presents an impressive bouquet with a wide span of aromas that start off with blue flower and pressed rose and extend gently to iron ore and crushed stone. There is a ferrous quality as well. The wine is light and translucent in appearance, but don't underestimate the power it delivers to the palate. Albesani is especially marked in terms of its tannic structure.
