The 2014 Barolo Via Nuova is a blend of six sites - Liste, Terlo, Ravera di Monforte, Mosconi, Gabutti and Baudana - all of which are bottled as vineyard designates by other growers. There is something about the art of the blend that can be convincing, especially in challenging vintages such as 2014. The Via Nuova is a veritable explosion of aromas, flavors and sensations. Super-ripe red cherry, plum, kirsch, cinnamon and lavender all rush from the glass. Sweet, perfumed and beautifully layered throughout, the 2014 Via Nuova is all finesse.

More in the zone right now, ready to rock but it is firm from youth, but the fruit, yeah that dimension is very pleasing.

The Chiara Boschis 2011 Via Nuova is a classic effort in every senses of the word. I was met by a display of dark red fruits, roses, animal musk, brown spice and undergrowth. On the palate, I found beautifully contrasted textures, both silky and vibrant, as notes of rich strawberry, plum, and savory spice mingled with earth and mineral tones. It finished on fine tannin, dried fruits and inner florals. This is a gorgeous wine that has improved in bottle over the last year. #Barolo #wine

Chiara is always a stunner. This baby needs more time. Hold for another 5-10 years.

Still a baby. Wait. If you can. All the classic flavors you expect with such grace and understated power. Chiara is the best. Simply the best.
