Le Piane Boca Nebbiolo Blend 2015

We first started working with the beautiful Nebbiolo based wines from Le Piane with the 2008 vintage, and the wines have gone from strength to strength since. Their Boca comes from a host of parcels over about 4haandnbsp;pieced together byandnbsp;Christoph Kuenzliandnbsp;and a few friends. This is traditional Piemontese winemaking at itand#39;s finest - long fermentations in open steel andamp; large wood with native yeasts for about 30 days and aging in large older Slavonian oak for 3 years.andnbsp; Weand#39;d have to count and#39;15 as the most successful version of this Boca since we first encountered the wines. This shows clean red fruits withandnbsp;a subtle peppery spice from the small amount of Vespolina used in the blend. An exceptionally pretty wine already, with impressive drive and intensity carried over a silky mid-weight frame. Thereand#39;s graceful lifting acidity that makes this a joy to pop andamp; enjoy now and will allow this to flourish in the cellarandnbsp;over the next 10+ years.andnbsp;
