2006 Luigi Pira Barolo Marenca
Piras Barolo Marenca is one of the biggest, most extroverted wines being made today in Piedmont and the 2006 is no exception. It shows a touch more opulence than the Margheria in its intense, dark fruit. Readers will find incredible harmony here, and a finish that lasts forever. Iron, tar, licorice and smoke linger on the powerful finish. This is a marvelous Barolo from Pira, but patience is the key. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2026.

2006 Luigi Pira Barolo Margheria
The 2006 Barolo Margheria is an imposing, weighty wine packed with dark red fruit, scorched earth, spices and licorice. Though still impressively clenched and tight, the Margheria seems to have enough fruit to balance out its structural components. Today, the wine is remarkable for its sheer power and length, both of which augur well for the future. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2026.

2006 Luigi Pira Barolo Vigna Rionda
The 2006 Barolo Vigna Rionda emerges from the glass with gorgeous inner perfume, seamlessly integrated French oak, roses, ripe red fruits and licorice. As the vines have gotten older, more and more vineyard character has begun to show in the wine, and in 2006 the Vigna Rionda captures many of the qualities that make this one of the most revered sites in Piedmont. New oak levels have come down a touch, which helps quite a bit as well. Still, this powerful, austere, massively endowed Barolo will require...

Pira/Luigi Barolo Margheria 2007
94 points Antonio Galloni ( Wine Advocate ) : "The 2007 Barolo Margheria is superb. The vintage has smoothed out some of the more angular contours this wine tends to show when young, while not overpowering what remains a structured expression of Nebbiolo. Sweet dark cherries, tar, smoke, flowers, licorice and saline notes wrap around a radiant, energetic finish supported by plenty of grip. This is a fabulous wine from Giampaolo Pira. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022. (Oct 2011)"
