Luigi Pira Barolo Margheria 2021

Luigi Pira Barolo Margheria 2021 is a powerful and elegant Nebbiolo with captivating aromas of rose petals, red cherry and raspberry layered with notes of licorice, spice and earthy undertones. The palate is full-bodied and structured, showcasing vibrant acidity, firm yet refined tannins and complex flavors of red fruit, tar and mineral nuances. Its silky yet robust texture leads to a long, persistent finish with depth, precision and excellent aging potential.

Food Pairing: Braised beef, lamb, game dishes, truffle pasta and aged hard cheeses.

95 Points - Wine Spectator

Elegant and expressive, this red reveals strawberry, cherry, rose, mineral and wild herb aromas and flavors. Beautifully balanced and blossoms on the fruit-, mineral- and spice-infused aftertaste. Deceptive in the sense that this needs much more time to reach its peak. Best from 2029 through 2047. 400 cases made, 200 cases imported.

94 Points - James Suckling

A floral and restrained Barolo with fresh violets, red and black cherries and pomegranates on the nose. The attack is full-bodied with orange flavors, juicy acidity, chewy tannins and a polished finish. Best after 2026.
