2018 Matteo Correggia, Roero Riserva "Roche d'Ampsej"

While Matteo Correggia famously put the Roero region on the global wine map through benchmark white expressions of Arneis, their flagship Roero Riserva stands as the ultimate testament to the estate's mastery over red wine. Sourced from old-vine Nebbiolo planted in their single-site grand cru vineyard, this bottle delivers the power, pedigree, and aging potential of a world-class Barolo or Barbaresco Riserva at a mere fraction of the price. What makes this release so exceptionally unique is that the importer has handled all the patient cellar aging for you—releasing the wine only as it hits its prime drinking window. With integrated structure and another full decade of life ahead, it offers serious collector-level elegance without the decade-long waiting period.   

In the glass, it opens with seductive aromas of macerated dark cherries, dried rose petals, orange peel, and crushed spice underpinned by fine, earthy minerality. On the palate, the wine unfolds with fleshy dark fruit and velvety, polished tannins, yielding a long, savory finish that balances broad intensity with classic Roero freshness. Pair this mature, structured Nebbiolo alongside classic Piedmontese agnolotti del plin, braised beef short ribs, roasted wild duck, or a rich mushroom risotto to complement its woodsmoke and spiced cherry nuances.
