Vietti Barbaresco Roncaglie
Product Description: An historic cru redefined with precision and finesse. Vietti’s Barbaresco Roncaglie 2021 marks a new era for this site, drawn from sandy hillside vineyards in Treiso that favour fragrance and elegance over power. First bottled in 1967 and once known as Roncaglie Masseria, the wine has since been fine-tuned with longer maceration, extended ageing and a considered later release, ensuring it reaches the market with greater balance and composure. In 2021 the wine shows remarkable clarity of fruit and structure. Fermented in open-top stainless steel with daily délestage and aged for two and a half years in large oak, barrique and steel, it reveals the house’s deft hand at expressing Nebbiolo. The result is a Barbaresco of concentration and grace, layering perfumed florals, taut tannins and fresh red fruits in a style that underscores why Vietti remains one of Piedmont’s most respected names. Tasting Notes NOSE – Red berries & florals Wild strawberries, blood orange, violet and rose with spice and earthy undertones. PALATE – Vibrant & structured Raspberry, cherry and mineral detail with brisk acidity and finely woven tannins. FINISH – Long & refined Silky taper with almond, floral lift and a lingering sense of finesse. Reviews & Accolades “The Vietti 2021 Barbaresco Roncaglie draws its fruit from inclined vineyards that produce fruit with finesse and elegance. This pretty wine opens to a note of fragrant flower or heritage rose that accompanies you over a long, silky close.” – Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, 96 points (2024) Finer Details: Style - Red Wine Varietal - Nebbiolo Country - Italy Region - Piedmont Vintage - 2021 Bottle Size - 750ml ABV - 14.5% Closure - Cork
