2019 Vintage- Ruby-red color, with subtle garnet hues. The nose is rich, potent and concentrated. Hints of ripe fruit emerge. On the palate, it is fresh and full-bodied. Notes of red and dark fruit (strawberry, blueberry and blackberry) emerge. The tannins are mature, soft, silky and well-integrated. The hint of almond on the finish is particularly striking. Overall, this is a beautifully balanced and refined wine.
Pairs well with stewed meat, game, roasted meats, and strong mature cheeses.
Vinous 98 Points- The 2019 Barbaresco Masseria Roncaglie is the best Barbaresco I have ever tasted from Vietti. Bright, translucent and full of energy, the 2019 is stunning from the very first taste, and it was poured after all the Barolos in the range. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, cinnamon, mint and orange peel all grace this exquisite, mind-blowing Barbaresco. The 2019 is pure and total finesse. For many years, the Barbaresco has been the hidden gem in this lineup. I am not sure how much longer that will last. The 2019 is outrageously beautiful. Don't miss it!
