KERIN O'KEEFE 96 POINTS - "Aromas of wild rose, eucalyptus and star anise form the enticing nose on the fantastic 2017 Pajè Vecchie Viti from Roagna. It’s linear and focused, with an almost knife-like precision that delineates juicy red berry, licorice, dried mint and a hint of hazelnut. It shows great tension, finesse and structure. Drink 2027–2037. Abv: 14% Kerin O’Keefe August 2023 ©kerinokeefe.com"
WINE ADVOCATE 95 POINTS - "Roagna has two bottlings from this site in Barbaresco, one made with younger vines and one from older vines. The 2017 Barbaresco Pajè Vecchie Viti comes from the more precious old vines that are all over 50 years old. This limited selection results in a slim production of 2,850 bottles. This expression does indeed reveal a greater sense of depth and detail with wild cherry, dark rose and orange peel. The bouquet is nuanced and fine, and the tannins just melt away over a long finish. Roagna excels in the difficult vintages, and this bottle is a prime example."
