BACKGROUND
Secondo Pira is a traditional wine producer located in the Piedmont region of Italy, known for crafting classic expressions of Barolo. The 'Margheria' vineyard, situated in the commune of Serralunga d'Alba, is highly regarded for its limestone and clay soils, which yield Nebbiolo grapes with robust structure and intense aromatics. The 'Riserva Speciale' designation indicates a wine that has undergone extended aging, often exceeding the standard requirements for Barolo Riserva. Secondo Pira's Barolo Riserva Speciale Margheria is a powerful, complex, and long-lived wine, showcasing the quintessential characteristics of Serralunga terroir with notes of dark fruit, tar, and spices.
