    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Roagna, Barbaresco, Paje, 2012

    One of the current superstars of the Langhe, Luca’s 2012 Paje is the product of 25 to 50 year old vines from a vineyard with one of the highest proportions of limestone in the Barbaresco region. This gives the wine a core of zippy red fruit and white rock finishing on sweet tannins. A very complete, seductive Barbaresco that spends five years in the cellar before release.

    ABV:
    13.5%
    94/100
    Antonio Galloni, Vinous
    The 2015 Barbaresco Pajè is the most nuanced and complete of the four wines in this lower tier of vineyard designates. Deceptively light in body, the 2015 possesses striking complexity and dimensions. Breadth and power are implied more than overtly stated. Clean, minerally notes punctuate the finish. The Pajè packs a serious punch. It will be even better in another few years' time. This is just classic Roagna and the wine in this range that offers the best value. I loved it.
