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.

Presents a polished texture that envelops cherry, plum, underbrush, earth and iron flavors, giving way to dense, refined tannins as this plays out on the finish. Racy and echoes the fruit, mineral and savory components on the aftertaste. Best from 2025 through 2042. 227 cases made.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
