Piedmont (Barolo)
Barolo Via Nuova 2006
Varietal: Nebbiolo
Review: “The 2006 Barolo Via Nuova opens with notable energy and drive in its dark red fruit, spices, menthol and sweet licorice. This long, pure Barolo reveals gorgeous length, beautifully balanced oak and superb overall balance. A mineral-laced finish rounds out the Via Nuova in grand style. For her 2006 Via Nuova Boschis used 70% new oak barrels with lower toast than in prior vintages and it shows in the wine’s class. This is a fabulous effort from Chiara Boschis. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2028.” (Antonio Galloni, erobertparker.com, Feb. 2010)
