About

Roagna Dolcetto d'Alba DOC 2023 is a dry red wine, crafted from Dolcetto grapes grown in the prestigious Alba region of Piedmont, Italy. This wine showcases Roagna’s traditional winemaking philosophy, emphasizing minimal intervention and deep respect for the teruārs of Langhe. Known for its purity and elegance, the 2023 vintage expresses the fresh and youthful side of Dolcetto, making it a classic yet approachable representation of the varietal.

Producer

Luca Roagna is the youngest generation of winemakers in this winery and works side by side with his cheerful father Alfredo. From 15 hectares of vineyards, both Barbaresco and Barolo are produced here. The history of the family begins in the commune of Barbaresco, where Luca's grandfather acquired the Pajé vineyard in the 1950s. To understand the wines of the Roanha dynasty, it is important to know that winemakers adhere to the principle of the development of the biological variety sélection massale (renewal of vineyards using cuttings of old vines), as well as the fact that grapes are harvested from ancient vineyards (some are more than 100 years old - for example, in the commune of Falleto ). The wine selection is dominated by three Cru Barbaresco: Pajé, Crichet Pajé and Pajé Riserva; the difference lies in the direction in which the vineyards are oriented and in the age of the vines. The Roanha family has never been afraid of innovations and since 1982 they have been offering a mixture of Nebbiolo grapes from different years: vino di tavola - a table wine called Opera Prima, and since 1988 - a mixture of white wines Solea, Chardonnay and Nebbiolo.

Tasting notes

Roagna Dolcetto d’Alba DOC 2023 opens with aromas of wild cherries, violets, and hints of dried herbs. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and vibrant, with soft tannins and lively acidity, delivering flavors of ripe red berries, plum skin, and a touch of almond. The finish is clean and refreshing, highlighting the wine’s natural finesse and balance.

Pairing

This Dolcetto pairs wonderfully with antipasti, light pasta dishes, and roasted poultry, where its acidity complements savory and herbaceous flavors. It also suits mild cheeses or mushroom-based recipes, enhancing the meal without overpowering it.

Dolcetto is a name shared by both the appellation and the grape. Wines made for the Dolcetto variety at its best can even be compared to the noble Nebbiolo. Dolcetto grapes are easy to disposition, mature faster, are less acidic and very fruity. Wines can be drunk young without waiting for a special occasion. Italians are happy to open this bottle of wine at dinner because it goes well with any food and gives the drinkers an easy cheerful mood.
