The 2006 Barolo has turned out beautifully now that it is in bottle. It shows lovely energy and focus in a tightly-wound style that is typical of the year. Red berries, leather, licorice and spices come together nicely in this mid-weight Barolo. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2027. I was quite taken with the 2007s I tasted from Giampaolo Pira. The vintage seems to be particularly well-suited to a house style that seeks textural richness and opulence. At the time of my tastings, all of Pira’s 2007s had yet to be bottled. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including: de Grazia Imports; tel.

A tightly wound red, this is firm yet elegant, offering cherry, tobacco, licorice and mineral aromas and flavors. Boasting intensity and length, this needs time to unwind. Best from 2013 through 2032. 416 cases made, 166 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
