James Suckling (97)- "Nervy and complex nose with excellent depth. Oranges, nutmeg, steel, mineral and a touch of white pepper and oyster shell. Broad and expansive on the palate with very structured, chalky tannins that extend to a lengthy, mineral finish. Long and youthful. From organically grown grapes. Can drink now, but better from 2027."
The Wine Advocate (97)- "The E. Pira e Figli - Chiara Boschis 2020 Barolo Cannubi is a fine and delicate wine, although there is a little more grit and richness in this warm vintage. The quality of the fruit is exceptional, especially its crisp ripeness. Dark cherry, blackcurrant, rose blossom, pink pepper and white limestone add considerable high-toned notes. The freshness is great and the fruit stays juicy, fueling a long, elegant finish."
Decanter (95)- "The talented Chiara Boschis has produced a gem from this cru in 2020. Fermented in stainless steel with multiple punchdowns per day (but no submerged cap), it's then racked off early and aged for 24 months in 30% new French oak barrels. Pure mint and liquorice scents with deep dried cherry, leather and blood orange notes. Very elegant with great persistence and a classic finish."
