Barbaresco Roncagliette

Cork

Paying homage to Angelo Gaja’s grandmother Clotilde Ray, Sorì Tildìn hails from the top of the Roncagliette hill. The high density, vertically oriented site was planted in the 1960s and first bottled separately in 1970. The south-facing amphitheatre is a heat trap giving a generous richness to the fruit as exhibited here by the dark, fleshy cherry backdrop. It is nuanced by roasted coffee, scented herbs and a savoury saltiness, with almost a beef stock meatiness. An energetic tangy bite lifts the mid-palate before dense, powdery tannins take hold;  just starting to dissolve and cede to the saline finish.
