Tight and brooding for now, Roagna’s 2019 Barolo Pira pulses with red strawberry and sour cherry fruit layered over crushed stone, mint, licorice and subtle dried herbs. The palate is tense and concentrated yet almost weightless, with a fine, gripping structure and a long, savory finish that promises considerable complexity for those willing to wait.
Tagliatelle al ragù di cinghiale, Porchetta with fennel and herbs, Aged Parmigiano Reggiano
Roagna’s Barolo La Pira (now labeled simply “Pira”) comes from a historic, limestone-rich cru in Castiglione Falletto, giving Nebbiolo a compelling mix of depth, minerality, and scented red fruit. Farmed traditionally from old massal-selection vines and raised with very long macerations and extended aging in neutral oak, it is a powerful yet finely etched Barolo, marked by rose, cherry, spice, and iron notes and built for long-term cellaring.
