Roagna Pajè Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2017

Ratings on Delectable

Bruce Dunbar

Wow. The 2017 Pajé from Roagna may be my wine of the (2023) year. Clear brick, almost tea colored. Chocolate, spice, menthol on the nose. Big mouth feel for a wine that doesn’t look or smell substantial or forward. Minerals, hints of red berry, tobacco, subtle tannins. Better with air. Nuanced, layered. Wonderful.
