Az. Agricola Matteo Correggia

Az. Agr. Matteo Correggia has been a standard[1]bearer for Roero since the eighties, when Matteo (having taken charge at the age of just 23) became an honorary member of the Barolo Boys, a group of young winemakers driven by the belief that Nebbiolo could and should express Piedmont’s distinct terroirs. Matteo tragically died in 2001, but his philosophy endures through his son Giovanni, who today manages the estate with winemaker Luca Rostagno. Grown on well-exposed, sandy soils, their Roero Arneis is vibrant, mineral and wonderfully easy to enjoy – no wonder it’s proved such a hit with our restaurant customers. Correggia’s single-vineyard Val dei Preti and Roche d’Ampsej are two of Roero’s most complex, age-worthy Nebbiolo wines.
