critic reviews
The Roagna 2017 Barolo Pira Vecchie Viti also draws its fruit from Castiglione Falletto in a vineyard site located just below Rocche di Castiglione. The vines were planted in 1937 on this slope with southeast exposures. This wine shows a similar character with a pronounced sense of focus and linearity that draws a through line from start to finish of the wine. Light mineral tones frame a core of fragrant fruit with crushed rose and limestone. This is a production of just 2,730 bottles.
The 2017 Barolo Pira Vecchie Viti dazzles from the very first taste. It offers a wild, intoxicating bouquet married to notable depth, with firm yet polished tannins that wrap it all together. Sweet red fruit, blood orange, rose petal, cinnamon, dried herbs and star anise build as this rich yet classically austere Barolo shows off what it's got. It is a super-classic Roagna wine.
