Description
Pira Chiara Boschis Barolo Cannubi 2021 is a refined expression of one of Barolo’s most celebrated crus, crafted from Nebbiolo in the historic Cannubi vineyard. Combining pedigree, precision, and the elegance associated with Chiara Boschis, it offers a modern yet deeply rooted take on a classic Piedmontese icon.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright garnet-red color with the translucency that is characteristic of Nebbiolo. The nose is layered and graceful, with aromas of red cherry, rose petal, wild strawberry, licorice, dried herbs, and subtle spice, often underscored by earthy mineral nuances. On the palate, it is structured and finely sculpted, with firm but polished tannins, lively acidity, and a long, savory finish that balances ripe red fruit with hints of tar, spice, and floral complexity. Like most great Barolos, it has excellent aging potential and will reward cellaring over the years with added depth and harmony.
Production
Sourced from the Cannubi vineyard in Barolo, one of the most prized terroirs in the region, this wine reflects the site’s reputation for producing wines of finesse, fragrance, and balance. Cannubi’s combination of marl, sandstone, and favorable exposure helps Nebbiolo ripen slowly and evenly, preserving freshness while building complexity. The wine is produced with careful vineyard work and traditional attention to Nebbiolo’s natural structure, followed by vinification designed to highlight purity of fruit, aromatic precision, and the layered character of the cru.
Food & Serving
This Barolo is an excellent match for rich, savory dishes such as braised beef, veal shank, truffle risotto, game, porcini mushrooms, and aged hard cheeses. Serve it at around 16–18°C and consider decanting for 1–2 hours, especially in its youth, to help the aromas unfold and soften the tannins.
