The nose is deeply complex, revealing layers of red cherry, wild strawberry, and dried rose, intertwined with notes of orange peel, licorice, and crushed stone. The palate is structured yet poised, offering vibrant red fruit, firm yet elegant tannins, and a striking mineral core, all balanced by fresh acidity. A long, resonant finish lingers with nuances of balsamic, cedar, and earthy spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCritical Acclaim\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Roagna 2019 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione comes from a 0.49-hectare parcel that was purchased in 2016. The vineyards lay adjacent to Pira, thus opening the possibility for the Roagna family to buy this land. The vines average 50 years old, and the plan is to eventually have this wine join the Vecchie Viti series. Because this is only the fourth year of production, that remains a goal for the future. This distinctive site, one of my personal favorites in the Barolo appellation, always delivers special sharpness and linear focus. You get that here along with a very long finish. The wine has muscle, but it also shows supple roundness and ample fruit weight. This is a wine to watch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 Vinous\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2019 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is all sensuality. Silky, aromatic and super-expressive, the 2019 Rocche is all class. Crushed flowers, spice, leather and crushed red berry fruit all grace this wonderfully nuanced, sublime Barolo. All the elements are so well-balanced. Silky tannins pull it all together on the finish, and this builds beautifully over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 Wine Spectator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFocused and linear, this red starts with mint, cherry, rose and mineral aromas and flavors before turning more savory as it builds to the finish. Elegant and detailed, the aftertaste echoes fruit and balsamic elements aligned with a mouthwatering impression. The most approachable of the Roagna 2019s. Best from 2026 through 2040. 260 cases made.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roagna","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54029512835437,"sku":"iei1790006388456","price":157.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/8077\/8605\/files\/roagna-barolo-rocche-di-castiglione-2019_1.jpg?v=1790006392","url":"https:\/\/diningfit.shop\/products\/roagna-barolo-rocche-di-castiglione-2019","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
