Vinous
The 2012 Boca is potent, rich and deep. It is also painfully backwards. Readers will have to be patient in order to fully experience all the 2012 has to offer. Wild red cherry, sage, menthol and licorice lift from the glass with some coaxing, giving a hint of where the 2012 is headed. A few years of cellaring is advisable. There is so much to look forward to.
Notes
Le Piane Boca is a distinctive red wine from the Boca DOC in the northern Piedmont region, made primarily from Nebbiolo and Vespolina grapes. Known for its structure, complexity, and aging potential, this wine offers aromas of red berries, spice, and earthy mineral notes. On the palate, it's medium-bodied with firm tannins, fresh acidity, and a long, balanced finish. The volcanic soils and high-altitude vineyards lend a unique minerality, making this an ideal pairing with roasts, game, or aged cheeses.
