Description

The 2018 E. Pira & Figli Chiara Boschis Via Nuova is an outstanding Barolo wine that exemplifies the best qualities of the Nebbiolo grape from the Piedmont region of Italy. The flavours of red fruit are complemented by a touch of spice, with a hint of leather, tobacco, and mineral notes on the finish.

The wine's acidity is well-balanced, adding a refreshing lift to the full-bodied palate. This is a wine of exceptional finesse and complexity, with a long, lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression of its impeccable quality. It is a wine that can be enjoyed now but will also age beautifully over the next decade or more. Overall, the 2018 E. Pira & Figli Chiara Boschis Via Nuova is a remarkable wine that showcases the elegance, complexity, and potential of the Nebbiolo grape from the Piedmont region.

Review

This is an organic blend of fruit from six MGA sites: Terlo and Liste (in Barolo), Ravera di Monforte and Mosconi (in Monforte d’Alba) and Gabutti and Baudana (in Serralunga d’Alba). The 2018 Barolo Via Nuova is fermented in steel and aged in oak according to time-tested local tradition. This mid-weight blended Barolo has a more prominent herbal or balsam signature at the back of red and purple fruits, licorice and pressed violet.

Review

2018 is restrained in feel, but all the elements are so well balanced. Freshly cut flowers, mint, crushed rocks, chalk and white pepper give the Via Nova notable energy. Intense veins of supporting tannin and minerality provide the backbone.
