Roagna Pira Barolo 2020, 0.75 L bottles, two bottles, fill level at the neck, Castiglione Falletto, Barolo, Italy.
Description from the seller
In stock one of the most sought-after and cult labels of the entire Barolo denomination: the Barolo "Pira" 2020 from the historic artisanal producer Roagna. The Pira vineyard is a Roagna family monopoly in Castiglione Falletto; an extraordinary natural amphitheater with vines whose roots plunge into soils rich in blue marls, limestone and iron, protected by the surrounding hills.
The 2020 vintage highlights Roagna's unmistakable style: a rigorously traditional winemaking with indigenous yeasts, extremely long submerged-cap macerations (up to 2–3 months) and aging in large neutral oak barrels. On the nose it is disarmingly complex: notes of small wild red fruits, withered rose petals, undergrowth, noble leather and a pronounced salty-mineral note. On the palate it is pure velvet, vibrant and elegant, with an interminable finish. A monumental wine destined for extraordinary longevity (over 30 years), perfect for collectors of top-tier natural and traditional wines.
Grape: 100% Nebbiolo (from vines with an average age of 25–50 years)
Production area: Castiglione Falletto (Cru Monopole "Pira")
Condition: Impeccable bottle from private collection. Stored lying down 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 2020 confirm its status as an absolute standout:
Vinous (Antonio Galloni): 95/100
Robert Parker (Wine Advocate): 94/100
Kerin O’Keefe: 95/100
Jancis Robinson: 17.5/20
Decanter: 94/100
