Domaine Luigi Pira

Luigi Pira is undoubtedly Piedmont's rising star, concocting exceptional wines at very reasonable prices, far removed from the skyrocketing prices of certain grands crus. Located in Serralunga d'Alba, in the heart of the Langhe and more specifically the Barolo region, the estate was founded in the 1950s by Luigi Pira. Now run by his son, the immense and discreet winemaker Gianpaolo Pira, the Luigi Pira estate boasts 10 hectares of vines, with plots in the region's most renowned terroirs such as Marenca, Margheria and Vignarionda, and even shares some plots with its illustrious neighbor Angelo Gaja.

Luigi Pira's barolos, the result of meticulous vinification and chemical-free cultivation, are powerful, structured and complex wines. They reflect the full typicity of each of these unique terroirs. The Dolcetto is impressive in its richness and concentration. A winemaker to follow very closely, whose wines should be cellared. These are treasures for the future, still accessible and which will increase in value for those who know how to wait for them. The value for money of Luigi Pira wines is absolutely fabulous, bearing in mind that these are huge wines.
