Langhe Nebbiolo 2024
The Langhe DOC Nebbiolo by Chiara Boschis (E. Pira & Figli) is a remarkably pure, elegant, and refined expression of Piedmont’s noble grape. Sourced from certified organic vineyards planted on calcareous clay soils—including plots in the esteemed Ravera di Monforte cru at 400 meters altitude alongside dedicated estate buffer zones ("fasce di rispetto")—this bottling is crafted as an autonomous, high-character wine rather than a secondary Barolo. It seamlessly pairs Monforte's structural depth with effortless charm and drinkability.
Cellar protocols showcase meticulous craftsmanship: temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation is followed by 14 months of aging in second-passage French oak barriques and at least 2 months of bottle maturation. The judicious reliance on seasoned oak gently integrates the tannins while shielding pristine floral and red-fruit aromatics, delivering a Langhe Nebbiolo of exceptional balance, clarity, and energy.
