Vinous, 96 Points 

"The 2017 Barolo Pira Vecchie Viti dazzles from the very first taste.  It offers a wild, intoxicating bouquet married to notable depth, with firm yet polished tannins that wrap it all together.  Sweet red fruit, blood orange, rose petal, cinnamon, dried herbs and star anise build as this rich yet classically austere Barolo shows off what it’s got.  It is a super-classic Roagna wine." 

Wine Spectator, 94 Points

"Presents a polished texture that envelops cherry, plum, underbrush, earth and iron flavors, giving way to dense, refined tannins as this plays out on the finish. Racy and echoes the fruit, mineral and savory components on the aftertaste. Best from 2025 through 2042. 227 cases made."
