It is born in the famous \u003cstrong\u003ePira\u003c\/strong\u003e vineyard, located in the municipality of \u003cstrong\u003eCastiglione Falletto\u003c\/strong\u003e, one of the symbolic places of the Langhe. A sunny and breezy slope, exposed to the South-East, characterized by calcareous and sandy soils that give the wine a distinct \u003cstrong\u003emineral freshness\u003c\/strong\u003e.\n\nThe particularity of this wine lies in its \u003cstrong\u003eblend of Chardonnay and white vinified Nebbiolo\u003c\/strong\u003e: an unusual combination in the Langhe panorama, but perfectly harmonious. The result is a \u003cstrong\u003efragrant, fresh and complex\u003c\/strong\u003e wine, with a full structure and a great ability to evolve in the glass.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage details\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe 2022 vintage in the Langhe was characterized by generally dry and warm weather, with rainfall distributed in the pre-harvest period. This allowed for optimal grape ripening, preserving good natural acidity. The Chardonnay and Nebbiolo bunches harvested by hand in September thus show perfect aromatic concentration and an ideal balance between fruit and freshness.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVinification and aging\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe vinification of \u003cstrong\u003eLanghe DOC \"Solea\" 2022 - Roagna\u003c\/strong\u003e follows the traditional methods of the Roagna family. Fermentation takes place in \u003cstrong\u003ewooden vats\u003c\/strong\u003e using only indigenous yeasts, i.e. those naturally present on the grape skins, without external intervention. After about ten days of spontaneous fermentation, the wine is left to mature for two years in \u003cstrong\u003eneutral oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, a choice that does not overpower the primary aromas but enriches them with complexity. Production is very limited: only between 1,500 and 2,000 bottles per vintage are produced.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eColor\u003c\/h3\u003e\nIn the glass, \u003cstrong\u003eLanghe DOC \"Solea\" 2022 - Roagna\u003c\/strong\u003e presents itself with a bright straw yellow color, with golden reflections that reveal lightness and fruit maturity.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNose\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe bouquet is fine and complex, with aromas ranging from white flowers to citrus notes and ripe yellow fruit.
