James Suckling (95)- "Outstanding for its pure savoriness on the nose, showing earthy strawberries, peonies, violet candies and restrained blood oranges. Intense. Relaxed on the attack but with firm, dusty tannins and crisp, slightly lifted acidity. The finish is tight and austere yet juicy and balanced. This deserves time for better integration."
Decanter Magazine (94)- "Bringing together seven different sites from across the villages of Barolo, Monforte d’Alba and Serralunga d’Alba, Via Nuova represents the estate’s classic Barolo. In the true spirit of the expression, it suggests a sum that is greater than its parts. Scents of earthy tea leaves, tobacco, pressed rose and mint blossom emerge evocatively. The palate is tightly stitched around warm red berries, and while terracotta-like tannins maintain a steady grip, there is enough breathing room for everything to be expressed."
Wine Advocate (94)- "The The certified organic E. Pira e Figli - Chiara Boschis 2022 Barolo Via Nuova is a blend of fruit from various prestigious sites long under the stewardship of this estate, assembled carefully to deliver exceptional balance and tension. Delicate layers of dark fruit, pressed rose, blood orange and grilled herb unfold with precision, and although some wines from 2022 show extra tannic firmness, this wine is instead gracefully silky and elongated, offering a sense of ethereal lightness alongside notable depth. It has an accessible side for medium-term drinking, but it also has the structure for longer cellar aging."
