Barolo “Mosconi” DOCG 2019 (BIO) · MAGNUM in OWC
E. Pira & Figli / Chiara Boschis | Piedmont
Az. Agr. E. Pira & Figli Chiara Boschis | Via Vittorio Veneto 1 | IT 12060 Barolo
The spirited Chiara Boschis has been a rather modernist Barolo winemaker for over 25 years, although she now uses much less new oak than she used to. She is best known for her Cannubi, but her Mosconi, which comes from 1 hectare of this top vineyard in Monforte d'Alba, can be just as good in some vintages.
Medium to deep carmine red colour. Very beautiful nose of earthy, complex cherry and blackberry fruit with subtle oak notes and a hint of pine. Juicy and smooth red fruit flavours on the palate, very concentrated. Delicious, crisp tannins. It is a plump, full-bodied and very concentrated wine that is assertive and youthful when young - but in balance. It is darker and fruitier than most classic Barolos, yet always structured, complex, taut and long. SUPERIORE.DE
"The aroma is a black-fruity-herbal composition; homogeneous in the mouth, the tannins tightly woven, the evolution with a lot of character and a virile-complex berry finish. With a game dish with truffles." Vinum
"Medium to deep carmine red colour. Already irresistible on the nose with deep, intense fruit and a hint of complex oak. Still very youthful, but with plenty of juicy fruit and a thick layer of polished tannins. Endlessly long." Jancis Robinson
"Deep, firm and complex, rather dark berry flavour with very fine ethereal spice, red currants, some cherries, tobacco, leather, some tar, dried flowers and pepper. Very tightly knit, tart, fresh, juicy fruit with lively acidity and plenty of grip from present, ripe tannins, herbal and slightly peppery notes, a hint of liquorice, persistent and dense on the palate, multi-layered, deep and fine despite all its power, with salt in the background, ethereal-herbal and resinous nuances and a hint of soya sauce, also tomato essence, tea-like fermentation tones, still underdeveloped, has tension, very good to long finish with fine, fresh, tart juice, tannic grip and complex, dark spice." Wein-plus
"A fresh, firmly structured red with cherry and raspberry fruit at its core, framed by flavours of mint, tar and iron. Broad-shouldered, with a solid matrix of tannins that dominate the finish today. Packs plenty of ripe fruit, so be patient." Wine Spectator
"Lots of spices and earth with dark berries on the nose. Full-bodied with fine and silky tannins and a long and flavourful finish with blackberries and cinnamon. Racy and silky texture on the finish. Best after 2026, but already a pleasure to taste now." James Suckling
"Bright, intense ruby colour with a delicately brightening rim. Ripe wild berries, cedar and liquorice on the nose, reminiscent of milk chocolate and candle wax, with an aftertaste of incense, cranberries and rosemary. A savoury entry on the palate, with grippy, tightly woven tannins and pinpoint acidity, as if from a single mould, keeps coming back, great length, very harmonious." Falstaff
"A Barolo with an impressive structure. The bouquet shows notes of blueberries, a hint of juniper, liquorice powder and bitter orange. On the palate, the tannins are spicy, then fruit and citrus return and a hint of undergrowth." Luca Gardini
"The Barolo Mosconi 2019 is the strongest of the three Barolos in the range. It exudes Monforte darkness and virile intensity from the very first sip. Black cherry, plum, mocha, sage, tar, lavender and spice give the 2019 a lot of character. This is one of the most elegant wines I've ever tasted from Mosconi, a site not naturally suited to finesse." Vinous
"Bottled at the full moon in August, the wine is impeccably balanced and bright with dark fruit, black cherry, spice and pencil shavings. The wine's tannic structure is impressive, and Mosconi can be counted on for long ageing potential." Wine Advocate
