Roagna is located directly in Barbaresco. Luca runs the family winery with his father.

Only 12 hectares are cultivated with the greatest care and worked in the traditional style. Luca ages his wines reductively, which means almost completely excluding oxygen. He does this traditionally in large wooden barrels, but they are five times as thick as a classic barrique, thus allowing hardly any oxygen exchange through the wood pores. In addition, he ages his wines on the fine lees, which is essentially a youth serum. Similar to the aging of classic Champagne, the wines mature on the lees very, very slowly. As a result, the wines need significantly more time to blossom. With the greatest effort, the small operation manages the masterful feat of marketing the wines as late as possible.

This means Barolo and Barbaresco usually appear on average one vintage later than many other producers. The vines are up to 80 years old.

The focus, besides some Barolo, is clearly on Barbaresco. Also very exciting is the Langhe Bianco Solea, a cuvée of Chardonnay and white-pressed Nebbiolo. A wine that, like the reds, lives from its structure.
