Le Piane Boca 2017

Christoph Künzli and his team produce great, particularly elegant and very long-lasting wines here at the foot of the Alps year after year. It is barely comprehensible, but since 2015 it has been a succession of great to great years here.
2017 may be even better than 2016 and there will be another Plinius for the first time since 2007! Judging by what we recently tasted from the barrel in Christoph's cellar, we can expect incredibly beautiful wines in the coming years. Le Piane is certainly the number 1 in Alto-Piedmont at the moment with wines of absolute top quality!

Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2017 Boca is delicate and understated, almost surprisingly so given the dry, warm year. Crushed rose petal, white pepper, cedar and sweet pipe tobacco lend aromatic brilliance to this weightless, wonderfully expressive wine. The Le Piane Boca has a track record of ageing exquisitely."
