If you think Barbera is just a weeknight red, Luca Roagna would like a word. At this estate, Barbera d'Alba receives the same reverence as the top-tier Barolos and Barbarescos: organic farming, wild-yeast fermentation, sixty to seventy days of submerged-cap maceration, and roughly five years of aging in neutral wood and concrete. No fining, no filtration. The result is a Barbera of extraordinary depth and structure—worlds removed from the bright, simple quaffers the variety is often reduced to. The excellent 2020 Piedmont vintage delivered warm, even conditions through summer and cool September nights that preserved freshness and acidity, giving the wine a perfect balance of concentration and verve. This is a serious wine at a Barbera price point—an insider's pick from one of Piedmont's most meticulous producers.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 92
"Roagna'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." -Antonio Galloni
