Barolo Riserva Pira, Roagna

Barolo Riserva Pira, Roagna - 2006

Item # 12221 750mL

From a parcel in Rocche di Castiglione Falletto, an area in the Langhe where the soils are a combination of limestone marl Roca and blue stones. Nebbiolo from this area begs to be aged. Roagna rarely makes a Riserva bottling so you're in for a rare, delectable treat. The wine aged for over a decade in large, neutral French oak casks.
