Barolo 'Margheria' by Luigi Pira is a rigorously classic, intense and austere wine. Born in the cru of the same name of Serralunga from an old vineyard of about 50 years of age, in the territory of Serralunga d’Alba, west of the village of Serralunga, almost on the border with the area of Castiglione Falletto. Robust and full-bodied, with a rich and complex aromatic profile, dominated by spicy notes, and a warm and enveloping flavor. Wine with an important structure, a perfect synthesis of power and refined elegance. Faithful to ancient customs, it ages 24 months in large barrels and gives a deep, rich and persistent sip, with a dense and lively tannic texture and an aromatically deep and complex mouth. Barolo for those who love the traditional style of Langhe wines.

Since the 50's, Luigi Pira transformed the company into a wine and address, in the following decades, selling grapes and bulk wine to large cellars of the Alba area who sought the precious product of the Serralunga territory. A first step that marks carved an indelible mark on this earth that can give the grower high quality red wines, including Barolo reigns. It was in the 90s, thanks to the push of the son Gianpaolo, that the identity of Pira Barolo takes shape, is in fact at the time that the product of the historical wine family vineyards are vinified and bottled separately. Wines that were to be affirmed in no time among fans thanks to a penalty and unique elegance, from vineyard to vineyard Marenca Margheria, from Vignarionda up to the classic Serralunga. Today Gianpaolo is joined in his work also by the brothers Romulus and Claudio. The wine produced from grapes of the historic family vineyards, is bottled all, the crus of Nebbiolo for Barolo are vinified separately and are born the corresponding labels: Barolo Vigna Marenca, Barolo Vigna Margheria, Vignarionda Barolo. Without forgetting the Serralunga Barolo.
