Description / Reviews
Born into a historical winemaking family that co-owned Giacomo Borgogno, Chiara Boschis has proven a pioneer all her own since she became the very first female winery operator and winemaker in the Langhe region back in 1990, taking out a mortgage to purchase the E. Piri & Figli winery. Under her stewardship, these have become some of Barolo's most coveted and collectable labels, having shifted their viticultural focus to harness complete organic farming and sustainable practices, bringing forth wines that exude ample power and layered complexity.
We have one very exciting evening coming up on the horizon, taking place on Thursday the 13th of August, with an intimate evening with a full row of these special wines at the new restaurant Bistro Tino, hosted by Beatrice Boschis, the niece of Chiara (now firmly entrenched in all vineyard and winery operations herself, ensuring the future is in safe hands).
Due to the small nature of production from this benchmark producer, and the more intimate event space, this event is limited to just 10 people, with which we will be enjoying a beautiful menu from chef Cat Anders (who also works at the brilliant Mosconi Restaurant next door). This event's attendees will indeed be some of the first to see and break bread in this stunning new space. Look below for the full details and the night's lineup, including Barolo releases both new and old.
We already know this will be one of our year's very best events - please feel free to reach out to us with any questions, or dietary requirements if you're coming along!
