Product Notes

Roagna Barolo Pira is a uniquely luxurious Italian red wine, hailing from the famed Barolo region in Piedmont. Sporting a robust, captivating bouquet of red cherries and blackberries with undertones of rose petals and savoury herbs, this wine delivers full-bodied richness elegantly balanced with lively acidity. On the palate, it reveals an enchanting interplay of black fruit, cocoa, and liquorice nuances, culminating in a persistent, graceful finish. Best appreciated after some years of ageing to unlock its potential. Roagna's Barolo Pira is a noble expression of Nebbiolo, certain to entice the discerning palates of wine connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes

Forthcoming, immediately attractive floral qualities, very open and fruity. A vineyard perfectly matched to the vintage - offering that mouth-covering Pira breadth and body aligned to the cool freshness of 2014 which has added focus and precision to the wine. Expressive, sweet strawberry and rosehip fruit, broad and generous but with lovely definition and finely-etched chalky tannins. A particularly successful, high-pitched Pira
