Pira e Figli (Chiara Boschis) Barolo Mosconi (750ml)","description":"\u003cp\u003eOne of the few women winemakers in the region, Chiara Boschis has built a legacy and a collection of wines that is the envy of many. E. Pira e Figli estate was passed from father to son for centuries, until the late 1980’s when Luigi Pira passed away. At that time his sisters felt that they could no longer maintain the estate. Hoping to keep the tradition alive they sold the estate to Chiara Boschis, whose family had long been friends of the Piras. Chiara now has eleven hectares of vines under cultivation in the communes of Barolo, Serralunga and Monforte d’Alba and has earned a reputation for consistently producing stunning, highly lauded, and age-worthy wines. Describing her as \"one of the nicest and most determined women in Barolo” The Wine Advocate adds that \"like the woman who created them, these wines are full of energy, elegance and voice.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e98 points: \"This Barolo opens up with aromas of bright cherries, cedar and a touch of sliced mushrooms. Medium-bodied with incisive freshness. The tannins are restrained, almost timid. The wine is overall compact and solid. Very well constructed and cohesive. Needs three years to soften, but it’s really enjoyable to taste.” - Jacobo Garcia-Andrade Llamas, Senior Editor - James Suckling (1\/25)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e97+ points: \"The E. Pira e Figli - Chiara Boschis 2021 Barolo Mosconi is structured, linear and ultimately quite mineral in character compared to the Cannubi. Its firm underlying architecture is rendered light and fragrant thanks to aromas of blue flower, grilled herb (with both rosemary and aniseed) and pulverized stone. Fruit comes from a site in Monforte d'Alba at a cool 370 meters in elevation. I came back to this bottle 24 hours after my first tasting and remarked on the elegant, chalky nature of the tannins. 9,000 bottles were produced.” - Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate (1\/25)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e96 points: \"The 2021 Barolo Mosconi is ample, creamy and resonant in the glass in its first impression. Dark red\/blue fruits, leather, lavender, spice and menthol build with some coaxing. There's plenty of Mosconi substance, but Chiara Boschis has done a terrific job in taming the tannins here. This is one of the most refined wines I have ever tasted from the Mosconi cru. Time in the glass brings out the wine's structural presence, while floral overtones and insistent tannins support the driving finish. (Drink between 2028-2041)” - Antonio Galloni, Vinous (1\/25)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e18\/20 points: \"Monforte d’Alba. Lustrous mid crimson. Deep cherry and raspberry with notes of cinnamon which, with aeration, change into complex, perfumed oak. Lush and juicy at the same time, but still very closed. The fruit is perfectly filled out with finely chiselled tannins. Gorgeous balance. (WS) (Drink between 2026-2038)” - Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com (11\/24)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e95-98 points: \"With a deeper magenta color, the 2021 Barolo Mosconi was also tasted from barrel and is potent and packed with ripe and spicy aromas of crushed stones, pepper. Medium to full-bodied, it’s mineral toned and has rich, powerful tannins and a long finish. In fact, there’s notable power to all these wines from E. Pira.” - Audrey Frick, Jeb Dunnuck (5\/24)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Wine Club","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45997425852674,"sku":null,"price":99.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/1419\/7817\/files\/Screenshot2024-03-07120113.png?v=1709841711","url":"https:\/\/thewineclub.com\/products\/2019-e-pira-e-figli-chiara-boschis-barolo-mosconi-750ml-copy","provider":"The Wine Club","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
