*We offer Free Shipping over $300! (Excl. NT)
Vineyard and Origin
Sourced from the oldest vines within the Pajé vineyard in Barbaresco, this wine represents Roagna’s deep commitment to preserving historic vine genetics and site expression. The vines are over 50 years old and deeply rooted in calcareous marl soil, contributing to the wine’s exceptional complexity and structure.
Viticulture and Winemaking
Practicing organic viticulture, Roagna harvests fruit manually at optimal ripeness. Fermentation occurs naturally with indigenous yeasts, followed by a long maceration lasting up to 80 days. The wine is then matured in large neutral oak botti for over five years. Bottling is done without fining or filtration to preserve purity and terroir character.
Tasting Profile
Colour: Clear garnet with brilliant red hues
Nose: Intensely perfumed, with aromas of rose petals, crushed cherries, fresh herbs, orange rind, and subtle earth
Palate: Focused and vibrant, offering red currant, dried cranberry, mineral-laced acidity, and firm yet finely integrated tannins. Delicate floral tones and a persistent finish define its elegance
Style and Aging Potential
Pajé Vecchie Viti is a classic and long-lived Barbaresco. Its depth and tannic backbone support extended aging, with peak expression expected from 2030 onwards. It combines finesse and intensity in a uniquely detailed profile
Food Pairing
Best enjoyed alongside dishes with earthy and umami-rich elements such as mushroom risotto, truffle-infused pasta, slow-cooked game meats, or hard cheeses like Parmigiano Reggiano. Decanting is recommended for current drinking.
