The 2015 Barbaresco Pajè shows some fruit ripeness with cherry cola and balsam herb. Those two descriptors are very clearly identified in my opinion, and they give the bouquet a consistent, even-footed approach. The Pajè reveals the sunshine and fruit weight that characterized this vintage; however, the wine never strays far from the elegance that is a hallmark of the Roagna house style. Exactly 7,608 bottles were released. 93/100 (06.2021)

The 2015 Barbaresco Pajè is the most nuanced and complete of the four wines in this lower tier of vineyard designates. Deceptively light in body, the 2015 possesses striking complexity and dimensions. Breadth and power are implied more than overtly stated. Clean, minerally notes punctuate the finish. The Pajè packs a serious punch. It will be even better in another few years' time. This is just classic Roagna and the wine in this range that offers the best value. I loved it. 94/100 (10.2020)
