Barolo Mosconi 2018 - E.Pira - Chiara Boschis
Barolo Mosconi is obtained from the pure vinification of the oldest vineyard belonging to the homonymous property located in Monforte d'Alba. The terrain is typically Helvetian with an older formation. It is clayey calcareous marl with a slightly gray color, alternating with siliceous sandstones. In some areas the presence of calcium carbonate and iron gives a warmer chromatic note and a slight tendency to pink. These soils, located at an altitude of about 400 meters above sea level, give great structure and characteristics typical of long-aged Barolo. The color is deep brown red; the scent is generally very open with floral scents, ripe fruit, and some spicy notes. In the mouth you can feel the majestic structure of a firm, dry and velvety wine.
"The 2018 Barolo Mosconi shows all the gravitas and natural darkness of this site, but in miniature. Black cherry, plum, gravel, smoke, crushed rocks and incense fill out the layers. There is plenty of Mosconi muscle, even if the volume of the best years isn't there." Antonio Galloni
