Roagna’s Pira Vecchie Viti Barolo is a profound and age-worthy expression of Nebbiolo, sourced from old vines in the historic Pira cru of Castiglione Falletto. The nose is intensely aromatic and complex, revealing layers of red cherry, wild strawberry, and dried rose, intertwined with notes of orange peel, licorice, and iron-rich earth. The palate is structured yet refined, offering vibrant red fruit, firm yet polished tannins, and a deep mineral core, all carried by racy acidity. A long, commanding finish lingers with nuances of balsamic, cedar, and savory spice.
