2007 Luigi Pira Barolo

Nebbiolo more

5/16/2024 - kdart000 wrote: 90 points

Solid but seems a bit disjointed. Significantly better with food, a bit tannic but not enough fruit to back it up. This bottle has been open for an hour and it's not improving other than stark dryness blowing off. I think this is a bit on the downside but a nice bottle either way. Drink up!

A little bit more fruit in the mid palate than Seerralunga.

After some La Morra Barolo this is a bit more green to the nose. And really tight

This was outstanding. Dark, meaty, balsamic flavors integrated with velvety texture. A very complex wine with great structure, firm but polished tannins, and a long finish. Drinking well now but has the weight and depth to go on for years. My only bottle sadly.

My favorite of the tasting at Luigi Pira

While lighter in body, the wine is nicely nuanced. The finish shows a fair bit of tannins and dryness. Drink from 2027-2040.

A most elegant wine. A sweet vanilla nose, decent mid palate.

A fuller, rounder wine whose color was on the lighter side. I noticed violets on the finish.

Needs some cellar time.

On the lighter side with sweet earthiness. A tangy nose and drier finish. Could be a great wine to pair with a ragu.

I picked up a touch of vanilla surrounded by dark berry. Tannins we’re on the lighter side and the finish was short.

Tasted at Luigi Pira winery.

Very young and tight, a freshness on the mid palate with a cranberry finish.

Fabulous barolo.
Mature, notes of tar, chemicals, flowers
The oak is well integrated and even though the wine still has tannins. It is still a beauty and well balanced

Last bottle of a case purchased on release. Slow oxed all day and brought to a restaurant. They decanted. Right away the nose was showing strawberries and cherries with a bit of wood smoke. Zero bricking and the cork was not even stained one bit. Wine was very tight and has an acidic taste that masked most of the flavor pro. Let it sit for 45 minutes whic only slightly helped the acidic taste. The wine never fully resolved. It got better but never fleshed out like my other bottles. Sad that the last was the worst. Just not a good bottle. Disappointed.

Slow O'd for an hour or so; decanted for another. Young, but terrific. Tannins somewhat prominent; delicious cherry fruit. Food friendly, and equally delightful on its own. Drink or hold.

Off the list at Lalibera in alba, Italy.

Served a bit on the cool side from their cellar. Over two ours, the wine blossomed into a floral beast. This is a sensational year for Barolo and Luigi Pira makes great wines. This their best of a great line up.

Drink 2028-2045.

Pop n pour. Strict tannins disappeared after 10 min.
Great dark berries and tons of balsamic notes.
Lacking a bit depth for the year and plot imo.
Good and will drink at least another decade.

Plump, tutti frutti, some mixed herbs, hint of milk chocolate and mint on the nose. Medium bodied palate, strong tannins but slightly weaker acidity and somewhat hollow mid. Fairly long finish with dry tannins and dried fruits.

Nice but a little rustic. Massive structure. Full bodied, medium finish straightforward. Wait for 10 years, will never be charming.

Bursting with fresh blueberries and cherry fruit. Ripe tannic structure.
Had with filled pasta and tomato sauce. Perfect match.
