The Pira were an ancient family of wine growers, mentioned in the parish registers since the seventeenth century, who also became winemakers between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Gigi Pira, legendary exponent of the old school of production, created his wines by assembling the grapes from his own plots of Cannubi, San Lorenzo and Via Nuova.
Since 1980, continuity has been guaranteed by Chiara Boschis and her parents Franco and Ida, already linked to the Pira by deep friendship and mutual respect and representing a historic family of Barolo producers from the 1700s, now in its 9th generation.
