Philosophy and Vinification: The Roagna style is distinguished by its combination of tradition and innovation, with a deep respect for the grape variety and terroir. The winery takes a traditional approach to winemaking, with long fermentations in large wooden vats that allow complete extraction of tannins and aromatic compounds. Fermentation, driven by native yeasts, extends for 8-10 days, followed by an extended maceration that can last up to 70 days in the best vintages. This process ensures the complexity and immortal structure of Roagna wines, with the extraction of key tertiary bouquet characteristics.

Terroir and Old Vines: Roagna winery’s vineyards are rooted in soils characterized by the Tortonian, dating back to the Tertiary Age, which gives the wine a wealth of microelements and a unique structure. The importance of old vines is central to the winery’s philosophy, with some vineyards boasting vines planted in the period from 1937 to 1955. This ensures low yields and superior quality, representing a tribute to the long history and dedication of the Roagna family.
