Boca doc Le Piane 2019

The Boca of the winery of Le Piane is made for the the 85% by Nebbiolo grapes, that are enriched by a 15% of Vespolina grapes, that give to the wine some refined spiced signs and hints of honey. The Boca DOC is a structured and complex wine that requires a long aging; it has a ruby red color with garnet reflexes, at nose it develops a fruity bouquet with spicy notes of pepper, licorice and tobacco. In mouth it’s mineral and complex, with a long and persistent final. The Boca of Le Piane it’s a wine that is perfect if combined with dishes of red meat, game dishes, or aged cheeses.

The winery Le Piane, previously owned by Antonio Cerri, now is managed by Christoph Kuenzli and it includes 9 hectares of vineyards on the hills of Novara, inside the new DOC Boca. The wines that Le Piane produced are an expression of a terrain of volcanic origin and are the result of a careful selection of grapes in the vineyards, most of which are still cultivated with the traditional system called ”Maggiorina”. Christoph Kuenzli has the merit for having made known the Boca’s wines all over the world and for having relaunched a wine territory that was destined to disappear.
