Chiara Boschis took the reins at the E. Pira estate in 1990 and produces exclusively from proprietary vineyards that are now certified organic. Via Nuova is sourced from 6 vineyard sites across Barolo, Monforte and Serralunga. From the excellent 2016 vintage, this is a compelling detailed and complex wine with a brilliant future ahead.

In my opinion, the 2016 Barolo Via Nuova is the single greatest Barolo Chiara Boschis has made in her storied career. A monumental, thrilling wine, the Via Nuova captures all the best the vintage had to give. Explosive in the glass, with stunning aromatic depth, the 2016 is drop-dead gorgeous from the very first taste. Dark macerated cherry, lavender, spice, menthol and rose petal are kicked up a few notches from underlying veins of acidity and tannin that give the wine its energy and drive. The 2016 is a wine of extraordinary harmony, purity and finesse with an eternal finish. The 2016 Barolo Via Nuova is a blend of seven plots: Terlo, Liste, Paiagallo, Ravera di Monforte, Mosconi, Gabutti and Baudana. Antonio Galloni1st February 2020
