Wine Description
The Vietti Barbaresco Roncaglie 2019 is a stunning expression of Barbaresco, showcasing the complexity and depth that this iconic Italian wine region is known for. Made entirely from Nebbiolo grapes, this wine is a fine example of the varietal’s elegance and richness, paired with a remarkable sense of balance.
On the nose, the Vietti Barbaresco Roncaglie 2019 is perfumed with layers of red and dark fruits, interwoven with subtle oak spice that deepens its complexity. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with soft, silky tannins that caress the mouth. A striking note of almond emerges on the finish, adding a layer of refinement and a touch of finesse to the wine’s overall profile. The 2019 vintage benefited from a warm growing season, marked by a dry start to the year, followed by significant rainfall in spring and a hot summer with regular rainfalls. This allowed the grapes to reach perfect phenolic ripeness, giving the wine impressive intensity and concentration.
The Vietti Barbaresco Roncaglie 2019 is a wine built for aging, with its deep structure and vibrant acidity ensuring that it will evolve beautifully over the next decade and beyond. This vintage is truly exceptional, a testament to the skill of the Vietti family and the character of the Barbaresco region.

| Winery | The grapes for this wine come from the ‘Roncaglie’ Menzioni Geografiche Aggiuntive (MGA), which is a specifically delineated vineyard in the municipality of Barbaresco, which has always been recognized as one of the most premium areas. The combination of the limestone and clay-rich soils, the south-to-south-westerly orientation benefits from optimal exposure to the ripening sun, and the elevation at approximately 280 meters above sea level combine to produce beautifully balanced and refined Barbarescos. The average age of Guyot-cultivated vines is around 34 years, and they are planted at a density of around 4,600 vines per hectare. The vines are sustainably cultivated and manually harvested. |
