Roagna, Barolo Pira VV, 2020
Five generations of Roagna winemaking since 1880, now led by Luca Roagna. Pira is a 4.88-hectare monopole in Castiglione Falletto acquired in 1989—home to the winery itself. "VV" (Vecchie Viti) indicates vines over 50 years old, all massal selection. Traditional vinification: 60-100 days skin contact, indigenous yeasts, 4-5 years in premium French oak casks double the standard thickness for slow micro-oxygenation. The 2020 vintage is classical and exceptional—svelte, inviting tannins, expressive perfume, juicy fruit with luminous acidity. Approachable now yet built for decades. Quintessential modern-traditional Barolo.
