Roagna is somewhat of a rising star in Piedmont. Of course the estate is storied but in recent years it's been getting plenty of attention. And they aren't all about their Barolo. This gorgeous Chardonnay is as surprising to find in Piedmont as it is delicious. Supple, clean and elegant with some minerality, this wine is its own kind of Chardonnay. Worth seeking out, especially given how food friendly it is, as demonstrated at a superb recent meal at Maialino in NYC.
