Chardonnay from Piemonte!?🤔
Roagna "Solea" 2012 is sourced from 30 year old vines in the Pira vineyard located within the village of Castiglione Falletto. A small percentage of Nebbiolo is cofermented in with the Chardonnay in large wooden casks, then aged in neutral barrels for 2 years.
Rich up front, a line of saline undercuts the richness. Fresh pear and lemon in the nose and palate. As the palate shifts to the back it becomes linear and minerally, awash in fresh acidity and a long, clean, mineral finish.

It's chard on limestone. Sound familiar?

Burgundian flavors made from Piemonte Chardonnay with a touch of Nebbiolo, a beautiful combination.
