Tasting notes
The 2019 Barbaresco Roncaglie comes across as light and fleeting, even within the context of Barbaresco. Dried flowers, herbs, dried cherry cedar and sweet pipe tobacco are nicely lifted, but there is just not much depth or complexity here. The wine's light structure and dried out fruit exposes tannins that are edgy and not as refined as is the norm in this typically outstanding Barbaresco from the Colla family.

Barbaresco. Palish ruby. Embryonic, tight nose with savoury minerally hints and just a shimmer of red fruit. A core of sweet raspberry fruit framed by firm, ripe and polished tannins. Spectacular tannic structure that is totally captivating and with youthful, focused red fruit. (WS)
