E. Pira E Figli Barolo Mosconi DOCG
The most recently acquired parcel, the famous Mosconi Cru in Monforte d’Alba was purchased in 2009. The vineyard’s particular heavy clay soil (in some areas calcium carbonate and iron give the soil a reddish-gray color) lends considerable structure to this wine, making it a Barolo ideal for aging. A garnet red color is complimented by open perfumes of flowers and mature fruit with some spicy notes. This is a long-lasting wine of power and concentration with firm, velvety tannins.
Recent press reviews:
E. Pira & Figli Barolo Mosconi DOCG 2022
James Suckling (98)- "Austere and complex with stunning depth and minerality. The nose shines with clay, cured meat and a fresh, exquisite mix of sweet violets, red currants and blood oranges, as well as a subtle layer of licorice. Full-bodied and well-woven with great tannins, this is ripe, velvety and salty, showing crisp acidity and chewy character. Graphite aftertaste. Drink upon spring release, but best after 2026."
