AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

in one of the most sought-after and cult labels of the entire Barolo denomination: Barolo "Pira" 2020 from the historic artisanal producer Roagna. The Pira vineyard is the Roagna family’s monopoly in Castiglione Falletto; an extraordinary natural amphitheater with vines whose roots delve into soils rich in blue marls, limestone and iron, protected by the surrounding hills.

The 2020 vintage highlights Roagna’s unmistakable style: a strictly traditional vinification with indigenous yeasts, very long submerged cap macerations (up to 2-3 months) and aging in large neutral oak casks. On the nose it is disarmingly complex: notes of wild red berries, petals of withered rose, undergrowth, noble leather and a pronounced salty and mineral note. On the palate it is pure silk, vibrant and elegant, with an interminable finish. A monumental wine destined for extraordinary longevity (beyond 30 years), perfect for collectors of high-level natural and traditional wines.

Grape: 100% Nebbiolo (from vines with an average age of 25-50 years)

Production area: Castiglione Falletto (Cru Monopole "Pira")

Conservation status: Impeccable bottle from private collection. Stored on its side in a cellar at constant temperature and humidity. Level to the neck perfect, label and capsule like new.

Roagna is often reviewed later than other producers or released to market at different times, but the scores for the 2020 confirm its status of absolute prominence:

Vinous (Antonio Galloni): 95/100

Robert Parker (Wine Advocate): 94/100

Kerin O’Keefe: 95/100

Jancis Robinson: 17.5/20

Decanter: 94/100
