Matteo Correggia Roero (Nebbiolo)

Matteo Correggia
Written By Ellen Grantz

Roero has long been a source of Nebbiolo for Barolo producers, who prize the perfumed notes from the region’s sandy soils. Correggia’s Roero has always been a benchmark for this style, with silky tannins that make the wine approachable and enjoyable on release. The wine presents floral aromatics, ripe red fruit and brisk acidity without the iron-clad tannins of its more famous neighbors. This wine is ideal with the rich Piemontese cuisine and is a great foil for the truffles of the region.
