Product Notes

Roagna Barolo Pira is an exquisite Italian wine that brilliantly highlights the iconic terroir of Piedmont region. This elegant Barolo reveals notes of fresh strawberries, rose petals, and hints of earthy truffle, presenting a layered palate that is both rich and delicate.

On ageing, the wine develops a greater complexity, showcasing an alluring interplay of spice and savoury elements. Roagna's patient winemaking approach truly shines through in Barolo Pira, making it a sensational choice for any discerning wine aficionado.

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

Roagna’s winemaking process is a harmonious blend of ancient tradition and modern science, leveraging the principles of biodynamics to ensure the sustainability of the land.
