Product Description
This 2019 Nebbiolo wine hails from Serralunga, Barolo, Italy. While Barolo wines are well - known for their power, Serralunga, a less - known sub - region, has more Serravalian soils (some of the oldest in the area) than anywhere else in the Barolo DOC. Many think these unique soils give Nebbiolo its strength, making Serralunga wines even more representative of Barolo. The Pira family has lived on the Serralunga hills for decades, deeply understanding and respecting the terroir. In the glass, it looks delicate, and on the nose, it's incredibly elegant. It bursts with flavors of red cherries, raspberry compote, leather, rose petals, hay, and spice. It has strong structure and can be enjoyed now, but it will also age gracefully for decades.
To enjoy this wine, first, let it breathe for about 30 minutes to an hour to open up its flavors. Pour it into a wide - bowl glass to enhance the aroma experience. You can drink it on its own or pair it with rich, savory dishes like grilled steak or lamb. Store the wine in a cool, dark place with a stable temperature. If you have an opened bottle, cork it tightly and keep it in the refrigerator, but try to finish it within 2 - 3 days as it may start to lose its flavor over time.
