The wait is over. Every year, a handful of Barolo insiders quietly circle the release of Chiara Boschis’ Mosconi—a wine Antonio Galloni has long praised as one of Barolo’s most compelling, despite never chasing the spotlight. The 2021 vintage is the kind of release that reminds you why Mosconi is one of the most coveted crus in Monforte d’Alba: a south‑facing, high‑elevation site of old vines that yields Nebbiolo of depth, power, and unmistakable pedigree. Allocations are painfully small upon release, driven by tremendous press and global demand. Our cache is now in stock, and it’s certain to disappear quickly.

The critics wasted no time confirming what we tasted in the glass. James Suckling’s 98 points landed it on his Top 100 Wines of the World, praising its incisive freshness and compact, beautifully constructed frame. Wine Advocate’s 97+ highlights its mineral backbone, blue‑flower aromatics, and the elegant, chalky tannins that emerged even more vividly after 24 hours. Decanter’s 97 underscores the wine’s profound depth, stony minerality, and the signature Mosconi tension between power and refinement. This is the only Boschis Barolo still aged exclusively in barrique, and in 2021, it’s a masterclass in balance.

“Year in, year out Chiara Boschis quietly makes some of the most compelling wines in Barolo without getting either the attention or recognition of some of her neighbors”– Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

What makes this bottling even more special is the story behind it. Sourced from a 0.8‑hectare plot of 50‑year‑old vines at 370 meters, this was Chiara’s first foray outside the village of Barolo—a move inspired by her close friend Domenico Clerico, who famously championed Mosconi’s potential. Today, Chiara farms organically across her holdings and has become a driving force in promoting the region's sustainability. Her Mosconi stands as a counterpoint to her Cannubi: darker, more structured, more brooding—yet still unmistakably Boschis in its precision and charm.

For our Italian-focused collectors, this is the kind of release that disappears instantly, but rewards patience for decades. The 2021 Mosconi is a complete, textural, deeply expressive Barolo that captures everything we love about Monforte’s power and Chiara’s visionary touch. With such limited quantities available, this offer is reserved for our most dedicated buyers—and once it’s gone, it’s gone. Secure your bottles now and experience one of the Langhe’s most important wines at the height of its expression.

Molte Grazie!

Critical Acclaim: 

98 points, James Suckling:

• #59 Top 100 World Wines of 2025: “This Barolo opens up with aromas of bright cherries, cedar and a touch of sliced mushrooms. Medium-bodied with incisive freshness. The tannins are restrained, almost timid. The wine is overall compact and solid. Very well constructed and cohesive…  it’s really enjoyable to taste.”
  

97+ points, Wine Advocate:

• “The E. Pira e Figli - Chiara Boschis 2021 Barolo Mosconi is structured, linear and ultimately quite mineral in character compared to the Cannubi. Its firm underlying architecture is rendered light and fragrant thanks to aromas of blue flower, grilled herb (with both rosemary and aniseed) and pulverized stone. Fruit comes from a site in Monforte d'Alba at a cool 370 meters in elevation. I came back to this bottle 24 hours after my first tasting and remarked on the elegant, chalky nature of the tannins.”

97 points, Decanter Magazine: 

• “Selected from the estate’s oldest plot within Mosconi, this is the only one of Chiara Boschis’ Barolos still aged exclusively in barriques. The cool, fresh site sees significant diurnal temperature differences typically giving a powerful wine that needs tempering and, above all, time. The 2021 harnesses that vigour and potential masterfully. A marvellous mix of sweet spice, forest roots and stony minerals evoke a palpable sense of territory. Profound in its depths, it boasts juicy acidity with plush tannins you can sink your teeth into. Long, textural and enveloping with dark cherry, plum and hints of bitter cocoa, this is a complete and compelling package.”
