Pira’s 2007 Barolo is a fabulous entry-level wine that captures the early approachability of the vintage. This is a darker, richer wine than the Nebbiolo, with more depth but not necessarily more complexity. Layers of black cherries, licorice, leather and tar caress the palate in an inviting, sensual Barolo that shows many of the hallmarks of Serralunga. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022.
This is a head-spinning set of wines from Luigi Pira from top to bottom. I would be thrilled to drink any of these wines any day of the week. As always, Pira favors a style based on textural richness. At their best, the wines show an equal amount of elegance.
