Description:

Pira as we know it today comes from the 80s, thanks to the union between the family that gives the name to the winery, traditionally vine growers and wine producers from the end of XIX, beginning of XX Century, and Chiara Boschis and her parents Franco and Ida: historic owners of Borgogno winery. Chiara becomes the first woman producer in Barolo area and her personality strongly characterizes the philosoohy of the winery. The aim is that of producing a Barolo able to balance the traditional power and complexity with a more approachable drinkability, with elegant and fresh aromas. This is reached thanks to a very curated work in the vineyards, making Pira the first organically recognized winery of the Cannubi cru, and a careful cellar management.
From 2010, her brother Giorgio joined the winery and they decided to buy new vineyards, including the famous “cru” Mosconi, in Monforte, characterized by old formation soils of calcareous-clay marls, alternated with sandstones rich in silica.
The soil, together with an altitude of about 400 meters above sea level and the old vines used for this wine, produce great structure and long-aging Barolos.
