Solea, Langhe Bianco

Notes

Roagna’s Langhe Bianco from their Castiglione Falletto Pira vineyard. A blend of 80% Chardonnay & 20% clear Nebbiolo juice, fermented & aged in tino for 18 mths (including malolactic fermentation. Influenced by the cool, late harvest 2019 season, this is an unique, intense, minerally and fresh wine with a backbone that makes this a Bianco to lay down for a years. 12.5%

Notes

The 2019 Solea is bright and taut, certainly moreso than previous years. Luca Roagna’s drive towards making age-worthy whites has yielded an unusually closed Solea. Readers should plan on cellaring the 2019 for at least a year or two, which may be the very first time I have ever advised cellaring a Piedmont white! Almond, dried flowers, mint and lemon confit linger.
