Roagna - Barbaresco Paje 2019 (Pre-arrival) (750ml)
Kerin O'Keefe: 97 Points
Great red fruit aromas come to the forefront along with Alpine hay and baking spice on the captivating 2019 Pajè from Roagna. Mirroring the nose the elegant structured palate delivers pristine fruit sensations of juicy red cherry wild strawberry star anise and citrus before a bright salty finish. A backbone of refined tannins and bright acidity provide support. Drink 2029?2039. Abv: 14% Kerin O?Keefe October 2024 ©kerinokeefe.com

The 2019 Barbaresco Pajè is a step up from the first Barbarescos in this range. Its depth is apparent even from the color. Deeply pitched spice notes meld into a core of dark-toned fruit. Leather incense licorice and scorched earth follow adding layers of dimension. This fabulous edition of the Pajè is notable for its textural resonance and overall presence. - By Antonio Galloni on September 2024
