Concur with the WS review below, although I dropped my score one point and would add that the wine presently requires hours of natural aeration—no less than four in the bottle! We tested the use of a Vinturi, which produced unsatisfactory results. Perhaps decanting would take less time. Paired with pistachio crusted rack of lamb.
WS: 92. A fragrant and elegant red, delivering tuberose, strawberry, cherry and grassy aromas and flavors. Taut and balanced, with bright floral and red fruit notes gracing the lingering finish. Best from 2024 through 2038. 375 cases made, 150 cases imported.

Chiara Boschis is the white wizard of modern Barolo. At six years this is tasting amazing, takes about 90 mins to fully flourish but once its there, the wine displays beautiful structure, fine grain tannins, vivid acidity, and a balanced play between perfectly ripe fruit and earthy undertones. My chef friend was kind enough to gift me some fresh black truffle from Piedmont. Can’t begin to explain the harmony in the pairing. Cheers.
