A blend of fruit seven crus spread across Barolo, Monforte d'Alba and Serralunga d'Alba, the E Pira-Chiara Boschis 2016 Barolo Via Nuova is a polished and elegant wine that reflects all the classic characteristics of textbook Barolo. There are brambly aromas of woody red fruit, like pomegranate, followed by toasted hazelnut, licorice and grassy earth. The delineated tannins and the freshness of the acidity add to the depth and important layering of the wine. Following the best of Nebbiolo, the wine is weightless and powerful at the same time.
Alcoholic content: 10.00 %

"Delicato e di natura floreale il Via Nuova 2015 mostra note di fiori di ibisco, violetta selvatica e lavanda. Si arricchisce ulteriormente con note di amarene dolci e succo di pompelmo rosa. Corpo medio-pieno, tannini rigidi e vibranti ed un finale teso e tagliente. Bella l’evoluzione nel calice e la qualità imponente del frutto. Meglio dal 2023."
