Boschis	Barbera D’Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2017	09/2021 Review The 2017 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie offers up an exotic mélange of blueberry jam, cloves, licorice, spice and leather. In 2017, the Masserie is a bit riper than it can be, but that is the vintage speaking. Even so, there is plenty of the structure that makes the Boschis wines so distinctive.
Boschis	Barbera D’Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie	WA - Wine Advocate	92 Points	2018	06/2021 Review Released in 1,115 bottles and 16 magnums, the Boschis Francesco 2018 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie shows an inky or impenetrable appearance. This Barbera, which spends time in steel and later in tonneaux, is thickly layered with blackberry, dried cherry and plum. Overall, it is full-bodied but reveals medium length. It's perfect for a classic pasta of salsiccia e panna.
Boschis	Barbera D’Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2019	09/2021 Review The 2019 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie is a dense, opulent wine. Black cherry, smoke, licorice, chocolate and cloves are all kicked up in this beautifully dense, full-throttle Barbera. The 2019 is not a subtle wine, but it packs tons of punch and is an absolute delight to taste.
Boschis	Barbera D’Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie	VS - Vinous	91 Points	2020	11/2022 Review The 2020 Barbera d'Alba Superiore Vigna Le Masserie is the more potent of the two Barberas. It marries notable fruit intensity with quite a bit of structure and plenty of acidity. There's good energy, even if the ripe red-toned fruit seems a bit clamped down today. It will be interesting to see if this opens. Today, the Superiore feels a bit clenched. Inky blue/purplish fruit, gravel, incense and smoke build into the virile finish.
Boschis	Dogliani Pianezzo	JS - James Suckling	90 Points	2015	01/2018 Review Full-on black-cherry nose that is really bright in spite of the ripe vintage. A great balance of fruit and slightly sappy tannins. The finish is very clean. Drink or hold.
Boschis	Dogliani Pianezzo	VS - Vinous	90 Points	2016	06/2018 Review The 2016 Dogliani Vigne in Pianezzo is done in a somewhat linear style for Boschis that emphasizes persistence and energy more than overt fruit. Bright red cherry, mint and floral notes give the 2016 its distinctive high- toned personality.
Boschis	Dogliani Pianezzo	VS - Vinous	90 Points	2020	09/2021 Review The 2020 Dogliani Pianezzo is bright, racy and full of energy. Blood orange, mint, red cherry, pomegranate and crushed rocks lend striking vibrancy. In 2020, the Pianezzo is especially fine. I very much like the freshness here.
Boschis	Dogliani Pianezzo	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2021	11/2022 Review The 2021 Dogliani Pianezzo is bright, punchy and full of character. Ripe red-fleshed fruit intermingled with spice and floral notes meld together in this vibrant, juicy Dogliani from Boschis. The Pianezzo is not the most complex wine in this range, but it is certainly among the most delicious.
Boschis	Dogliani Pianezzo	JS - James Suckling	90 Points	2020	11/2023 Review Ripe and red-fruited with notes of blood orange, rose petals and red spices. Juicy and tangy with vivid acidity, savory character and fine, sandy tannins. Bright finish. Drink now.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2015	02/2019 Review The 2015 Dogliani Superiore Vigna dei Prey is all class. Deceptively medium in body in this vintage, the Vigna del Prey is all about grip and tension. A host of mineral, graphite, lavender and blueberry overtones are laced together in this deceptively mid-weight, polished Dogliani.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	WS - Wine Spectator	90 Points	2015	12/2018 Review Ripe flavors of blackberry, plum, spice and carob mark this rich, concentrated red. The dense tannins are well-integrated on the finish. Drink now through 2023.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	VS - Vinous	93 Points	2016	08/2018 Review The highlight in this range from Boschis, the 2016 Dogliani Superiore Vigna dei Prey is laced with the essence of blackberry jam, black cherry, licorice, graphite, cloves, menthol and new leather. Dark, powerful and sumptuous, the Vigna dei Prey shows off the richer side of Dolcetto to great effect. But what I love most about the Vigna dei Prey is its ability to be unapologetically flamboyant and yet not at all overdone. There is so much to love in the 2016.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2017	08/2019 Review Exotic and bold, the 2017 Dogliani Superiore Vigna dei Prey is full of character. Inky dark fruit, chocolate, cloves, licorice and menthol are all generously sketched in this unctuous yet mid-weight Dolcetto. Even with all of its overt fruit, the 2017 possesses quite a bit of tannic clout. I would give it at least a few more months in bottle.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2018	09/2021 Review The 2018 Dogliani Superiore Vigna dei Prey is a gorgeous, exotic wine. Blackberry, lavender, spice, tobacco, menthol and licorice give the Prey quite a bit of depth, but the 2018 is not as rich as some previous editions, not a bad thing at all. Once again, the Vigna dei Prey is a wine of real character and personality. I would open it at least an hour in advance, as the tannins are searing.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	GR - Gambero Rosso	2 Bicchieri	2018
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	WA - Wine Advocate	92 Points	2018	07/2020 Review This is a real beauty, a wine that shows lots of dark fruit and concentration with blackberry, black cherry and plum. The Boschis Francesco 2018 Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo - Vigna dei Prey offers balanced and intense aromas, making for a great first impression. This wine is aged in stainless steel only. It invites a cheeseburger cooked rare with wedge fries, bacon and guacamole. There are dusty, salty notes at the back of all that black fruit. Exactly 2,666 bottles were made.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	VS - Vinous	93 Points	2019	09/2021 Review The 2019 Dogliani Superiore Vigna dei Prey is packed with rich scents of blueberry, blackberry jam, gravel, lavender, spice, menthol and chocolate. In 2020, the Prey is brisk and beautifully delineated, a wine of persistence more than just body. It, too, is impressive.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	WA - Wine Advocate	92 Points	2019	06/2021 Review The Boschis Francesco 2019 Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo - Vigna dei Prey reveals lovely darkness and freshness, with punchy dark blackberry fruit to drive the message home. There is a raw and natural character that only the Dolcetto grape can bring. This, along with its acidity and freshness of fruit, is what ultimately makes it so food friendly, especially with a pizza or an easy pasta. This was a release of 3,612 bottles and 16 magnums.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2020	11/2022 Review The 2020 Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo - Vigna de Prey is laced with raspberry jam, white flowers, cinnamon and dried rose petals. Medium in body, but with notable depth and tons of fruit intensity the Vigna dei Prey is once again a standout.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigna Dei Prey	JS - James Suckling	91 Points	2021	11/2023 Review Notes of crushed wild berries and sweet plums with blue flowers and dried blood orange. Medium-bodied, juicy and blue-fruited with chalky texture and sandy tannins. Flavorful finish. Drink now.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2015	06/2018 Review A supremely elegant wine, the 2015 Dogliani Superiore Vigne Sori' San Martino has so much to offer. A rush of wild cherry, pomegranate, mint, sweet tobacco, licorice and dried herbs makes a strong opening statement. Medium in body and beautifully persistent, the 2015 is absolutely striking from the very first taste. Bright floral notes, rose petal and red plum add the closing shades of nuance in a wine that shows the dolcetto grape at its more refined.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	WS - Wine Spectator	93 Points	2015	12/2018 Review An intense, powerful version, this boasts a vibrant and muscular structure upholding plum, black cherry, spice and earth flavors. The dense, compact finish suggests decanting now or aging for a few years. Drink now through 2024.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2016	08/2018 Review The 2016 Dogliani Superiore Vigne Sori' San Martino is powerful and driven, with a distinctly earthy, savory style that differentiates it in this lineup. Game, white pepper, smoke, wild red cherry and dried rose petal add striking nuance to this potent, deeply flavored Dogliani. Drink it over the next handful of years.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	VS - Vinous	93 Points	2017	08/2019 Review The 2017 Dogliani Superiore Vigne Sori' San Martino is one of the most complete wines in this range from Boschis. Sweet red plum fruit, floral overtones and spice notes all meld together in the glass. The 2017 is powerful and rich, with quite a bit of supporting structure, and just impeccable overall balance. This is impressive stuff.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	WA - Wine Advocate	92 Points	2018	07/2020 Review The Boschis Francesco 2018 Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo - Vigne Sorì San Martino offers a dark and layered bouquet with exciting floral highlights of dark rose and pressed violet. The wine appears full-bodied at first, but upon second inspection, the fruit reveals a light and loose character. Blackberry and sour cherry add to the significant primary intensity of the bouquet. Fruit is harvested from 70-year-old vines spread over a two-hectare plot with important, labor-intensive slopes (with inclines ranging from 35% to 55%). As a result, all vineyard work is done by hand and a mere 2,000 bottles were produced.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	VS - Vinous	93 Points	2018	09/2021 Review The 2018 Dogliani Superiore Vigne Sori' San Martino is another terrific wine in this range from Boschis. Dark red cherry, red plum, mocha, wild flowers, licorice and spice build as this sumptuous, rich Dogliani shows off its total allure. Deep and fleshy, with striking balance, the 2018 is superb. Silky tannins and lifted floral accents add to its considerable appeal.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	VS - Vinous	93 Points	2019	09/2021 Review The 2019 Dogliani Superiore Vigne Sori' San Martino is a big, dense wine. Black cherry, smoke, tobacco, game, incense, dried herbs and rose petal build in a Dogliani that exudes power and breadth. Another year or two in bottle will help soften the formidable tannins. Readers will find a wine of tremendous distinction.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	WA - Wine Advocate	92 Points	2019	06/2021 Review Here's another Dolcetto from Boschis Francesco that shows thickly layered dark fruit, this time with blackberry preserves and black cherry. The 2019 Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo - Vigne Sorì San Martino is rich and very intense, wrapping thickly over the palate in crashing waves. This Dolcetto has a medium finish, but it shows a lot of volume on the mid-palate. There is some drying mineral on the close. Some 3,894 bottles and 16 magnums were released.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	VS - Vinous	90 Points	2020	11/2022 Review The 2020 Dogliani Superiore Vigne Sori' San Martino is packed with blue/purplish fruit, lavender, licorice, incense, gravel, scorched earth smoke and cured meats. This potent, muscular Dogliani has much to offer in a hearty, rustic style. Give the tannins a vear or two to soften.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	GR - Gambero Rosso	2 Bicchieri	2021
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo Vigne Sorì San Martino	JS - James Suckling	91 Points	2021	11/2023 Review This shows notes of dark cherries and wild berries with hints of sandalwood, dried flowers and walnuts. Juicy and vivid on the palate with medium body and a crunchy, red-fruited mid-palate. Flavorful finish. Drink now.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Vigna Del Ciliegio	VS - Vinous	91 Points	2015	08/2018 Review The 2015 Dogliani Superiore Vigna del Ciliegio is plump, juicy and forward, all of which give it tons of immediacy and sheer appeal. Soft curves and ripe, racy, red cherry/raspberry fruit add character and personality to this racy, inviting Barbera. The Vigna del Ciliegio is the most overt and fruity of the single-vineyard Dogliani in this range.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Vigna Del Ciliegio	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2016	08/2019 Review The 2016 Dogliani Superiore Vigna del Ciliegio is a powerful wine. Swaths of tannin add to its imposing, brooding personality. Smoke, tobacco, leather, licorice, scorched earth and black fruits all run through this decidedly potent, backward Dogliani. There is no shortage of personality, but readers need to be patient, as the wine is quite reticent at this stage.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Vigna Del Ciliegio	WA - Wine Advocate	93 Points	2016	07/2020 Review The Boschis Francesco 2016 Dogliani Superiore Vigna del Ciliegio opens to a dark and almost impenetrable appearance with blackish ruby highlights. This wine stands out thanks to an extra year of aging (with one year in large oak casks and 10 months in stainless steel), awarding us a different perspective on the Dolcetto grape. The intensity of the fruit has carefully subsided, and the wine glides over the palate with added tar, spice and truffle. This is a special red wine from Piedmont with fruit from southwest-facing 60-year-old vines planted in heavy calcareous clay soils. A precious few 1,600 bottles were released. I highly recommend this wine for its terrific value.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Vigna Del Ciliegio	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2017	09/2021 Review The 2017 Dogliani Superiore Vigna del Ciliegio is a bold, brawny wine. Big tannins give the 2017 quite a bit of presence, and yet there is more than enough fruit to balance things out. Wild cherry, blood orange, smoke, incense and game build in the glass. The Vigna del Ciliegio is another very serious wine from Boschis. Complex, dynamic and full of character.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Vigna Del Ciliegio	WA - Wine Advocate	93 Points	2017	06/2021 Review This is a really lovely expression from a hot vintage, with so much extra richness and big intensity. The aromas on the Boschis Francesco 2017 Dogliani Superiore Vigna del Ciliegio are almost overblown, with cherry liqueur, creamy crème de cassis and a syrupy texture. There is some dryness on the palate, but this grape and this vintage just click like lock and key. This was a release of 1,668 bottles and 16 magnums.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Vigna Del Ciliegio	VS - Vinous	93 Points	2019	11/2022 Review The 2019 Dogliani Superiore Pianezzo - Vigna del Cliegio is a dark, brooding wine. Black cherry, incense, smoke, licorice, melted road tar and gravel give this broad-shouldered, deep Dogliani tons of intensity. The tannins are firm, but nicely balanced. Give this 6-12 months in bottle or a good decant.
Boschis	Dogliani Superiore Vigna Del Ciliegio	GR - Gambero Rosso	2 Bicchieri	2020
Boschis	Langhe Barbera	VS - Vinous	91 Points	2019	09/2021 Review The 2019 Langhe Barbera is deep, flesy and declicious. A blast of dark red/purplish fruit, rose petal, lavander, spice and leather hits the palate.
Boschis	Langhe Barbera	VS - Vinous	90 Points	2016	06/2018 Review The 2016 Langhe Barbera is plump, racy and absolutely delicious, with plenty of red and purplish berry fruit pushed forward. Exuberant and giving, the 2016 will drink beautifully for at least the next few years. I love the fleshiness here.
Boschis	Langhe Barbera	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2021	11/2022 Review The 2021 Langhe Barbera is gorgeous. Succulent red cherry, plum, cinnamon, rose petal and new leather all meld together. Bright acids give this juicy, flamboyant Barbera a good bit of verve. I loved it.
Boschis	Langhe Freisa Bosco delle Cicale	VS - Vinous	92 Points	2020	09/2021 Review The 2020 Langhe Freisa Bosco delle Cicale is one of the most distinctive wine in this range. It marries the density that is such a signature of the house style with tons of savory and earthy nuance3, a super-appealing combination in my book. Dried cherry, game, herbs, licorice and spice are beautifully layered in this powerhouse freisa.
Boschis	Langhe Freisa Bosco delle Cicale	WA - Wine Advocate	91 Points	2019	06/2021 Review The Boschis Francesco 2019 Langhe Freisa Bosco delle Cicale pours to a medium black color with lots of raw and tangy berry fruit. Freisa is a terrific grape, and here you get some crushed black pepper, bright cherry fruit and plum. There is lots of pretty but easy intensity in this great entry-level red, with a relatively light 12.5% alcohol content. This release of 2,186 bottles is new to me and seems like a good value for an unusual varietal.
Boschis	Langhe Freisa Bosco delle Cicale	VS - Vinous	94 Points	2021	11/2022 Review The 2021 Langhe Freisa Bosco delle Cicale is fabulous. Rich, deep and expressive, the 2021 offers up a compelling mix of dark fruit, spice, dried Mowers and herbs, with firm, imposing tannins that wrap it all together. The substantial fnish is a thing of beauty. This is impressive stuff.
