Merchant's description

Chiara Boschis took the reins at the E. Pira estate in 1990 and produces exclusively from proprietary vineyards located in some of the very best crus of Barolo. Mosconi comes from a 0.8ha plot in Monforte d’Alba with 50+ year-old vines. The 2016 vintage is widely regarded as exceptional.
