The 2016 Barolo Pira Vecchie Viti emerges from the oldest vines on the property, those planted in 1937. As always, the Vecchie Viti is all about haunting, ethereal aromatics more than it is about power. Sweet rose petal, mint, dried flowers, sweet red cherry fruit and cedar lend captivating aromatic presence to this beguiling, high-toned Barolo. This is such a gorgeous wine. (AG)

There's a lightness to this red, yet also an underlying density and structure that frames its core of strawberry, currant and cherry flavors, with wild herb, tobacco and floral notes adding depth as this persists on the long finish. Shows both power and grace. Best from 2024 through 2045. 260 cases made.
