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.

There's a lightness to this red, yet also an underlying density and structure that frames its core of strawberry, currant and cherry flavors, with wild herb, tobacco and floral notes adding depth as this persists on the long finish. Shows both power and grace. Best from 2024 through 2045. 260 cases made.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
