E. Pira e Figli Chiara Boschis - Barolo 'Via Nuova' 2021
Produced in the heart of Piedmont, Italy, this wine is a masterfully crafted Barolo DOCG that represents a blend of fruit from six renowned vineyard sites across the Barolo, Monforte d'Alba, and Serralunga d'Alba subregions. The historic E. Pira e Figli estate was famously taken over in 1990 by Chiara Boschis, who became one of the first female winemakers in the region and a leader in the 'Barolo Boys' movement.
Wine Description
Via Nuova presents a luminous cherry red colour with medium transparency, characteristic of young, high-quality Nebbiolo. The nose is multi-layered and charming, offering a bouquet of ripe cherries, plums, and blood orange, interwoven with rose petals, mint, and delicate hints of cinnamon and almond. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine is bright and energetic, featuring a firm inner fiber and a lively acidity structure. The tannins are ripe and polished, leading into a long, persistent finish that lingers with notes of floral fruit pips and aniseed.
Accolades
"Wine Advocate - 96 points."
"Vinous - 96 points."
"James Suckling - 95 points."
Food Pairing
This wine is ideally suited for rich, savoury dishes such as Brasato al Barolo (Barolo-braised beef), ossobuco, or a decadent mushroom risotto. It also pairs beautifully with aged hard cheeses like Parmigiano Reggiano or Castelmagno, and traditional Piedmontese tajarin with truffles.
