Why We're Buying
Vecchie Viti, previously known as Barbaresco Asili, is typically one of the first wines released from Roagna. It comes from the estate’s oldest vines, each of them over 50 years old. The Barbaresco has a deep ruby red color with aromas of plum, spice, damp earth, roses, and violets. It also appreciated 77.6 from 2017 to 2021.
Critics Scores
Vinous
The 2016 Barbaresco Asili Vecchie Viti is sensual, gracious and light on its feet. The purity of the fruit is simply dazzling, while tannins are all Asili, which means a bit softer than in the other wines. In the glass, the Asili is beautifully perfumed and ethereal, yet also quite deep, in the way only Nebbiolo can be. Crushed red berry fruit, kirsch, orange peel, cedar and cinnamon all linger.
