Roagna Montefico Vecchie Viti Barbaresco 2018

The 2019 Barbaresco Montefico Vecchie Viti is a heady, explosive wine. Bright, focused and energetic, the 2019 screams with Montefico character. Crushed rocks, slate, mint, white pepper, dried cherry and chalk are some of the many notes that inform this taut, vibrant Barbaresco. Clean mineral notes extend the finish effortlessly. The Montefico is often one of my favorites in the range. The 2019 is truly special. What a wine! Drinking window: 2027-2044. (Antonio Galloni,Other,Oct. 29, 2024)
