E. Pira e Figli Chiara Boschis – Barolo ‘Mosconi’ 2018

The most recently acquired parcel, the famous Mosconi Cru in Monforte dAlba was purchased in 2009. The vineyards particular heavy clay soil (in some areas calcium carbonate and iron give the soil a reddish-gray color) lends considerable structure to this wine, making it a Barolo ideal for aging. A garnet red color is complimented by open perfumes of flowers and mature fruit with some spicy notes. This is a long-lasting wine of power and concentration with firm, velvety tannins.
