Roagna Pira Barolo 2015 Red Wine 75cLBy Winebuyers

Roagna's Pira Barolo is a 2015 red wine, produced by Winebuyers. The Roagna family, currently run by 5th generation Luca, has 16 hectares of vineyard split between Barbaresco and Barolo, with parcels in some of the region's finest vineyards, including Asili, Paje, and Montefico in Barbaresco, and the monopole cru La Rocca e Le Pira in Barolo. Their vineyards are grown organically, without any chemicals or fertilizers, and Luca believes in biodiversity as a key method for achieving vine health. The cellars are located in the Paje cru, in Barbaresco, and the wines are famous for very long skin contact (70-100 days) and long ageing (5-8 years depending on the vintage) in old Slavonian oak casks. The Roagna family owns 4.88 hectares in the Pira vineyard, which is southeast facing. This wine is a limited production, often with less than 1000 bottles produced of each wine. It is available in a 75cl bottle, suitable for both men and women.
