Vinous
Review Date: 01/2026Roagna's 2020 Barbera d'Alba is soft, pliant and inviting. Crushed rose petal, bright red-toned fruit, blood orange, cedar and spice all meld together. Soft, silky contours wrap it all together in style. The 2020 was aged in cask, one that was new, and there is the slightest hint of oak in the wine. This is a bit unusual for the house style but works well here. (AG)

Notes
Roagna’s Barbera d'Alba is a refined and terroir-driven expression of this classic Piedmontese varietal, showcasing depth, freshness, and structure. The nose is vibrant and layered, revealing ripe red cherry, wild berries, and plum, intertwined with notes of violet, sweet spice, and earthy minerality. The palate is rich yet balanced, offering juicy red fruit, lively acidity, and fine-grained tannins, all supported by a firm yet elegant structure. A long, polished finish lingers with hints of balsamic, cedar, and crushed herbs.
