Chiara Boschis Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2021 

Chiara Boschis Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2021 is de Barbera die letterlijk naast haar beroemde Barolo groeit, gemaakt van de lagere delen van dezelfde cru-percelen in Barolo en Serralunga. Pira – E. Pira & Figli – is een historisch Barolo-domein dat in 1990 een nieuwe fase inging toen Chiara Boschis, een van de eerste vrouwelijke wijnmakers in de Langhe, het roer overnam en de wijngaarden volledig met de hand en biologisch ging bewerken. Wat maakt Chiara Boschis Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2021 zo interessant voor Barolo-liefhebbers? Het is een 100% Barbera die de kracht en diepte van grote Barolo-bodems koppelt aan de frisheid en sappigheid van Barbera, met een stijl die zowel intens als opvallend verfijnd is.

Wijngaarden en regio

De druiven voor deze Barbera d'Alba Superiore komen uit Italië, uit Piemonte, uit de zone rond Barolo, waar E. Pira & Figli eigen wijngaarden bezit. De Barbera-stokken staan in de lagere delen van dezelfde percelen die de top-Barolo van het huis leveren, met een gemiddelde stokkenleeftijd van rond de 45 jaar. De bodems zijn van Elvezische oorsprong, rijk aan kalk en mergel, wat voor extra structuur en elegantie in de wijn zorgt. Chiara Boschis werkt als artisanale wijnboer: al het werk in de wijngaarden wordt handmatig gedaan en er wordt volgens biologische principes gewerkt, met veel aandacht voor lage opbrengsten en perfecte rijpheid van de druiven. Zo ontstaat een Barbera d'Alba Superiore die duidelijk de signatuur van de Barolo-heuvels draagt, maar dan in een toegankelijkere, fruitgedreven vorm.

Vinificatie en rijping

In de kelder volgt Chiara Boschis een werkwijze die traditionele en moderne technieken combineert, altijd met het doel om de druif en de herkomst zo zuiver mogelijk te laten spreken. De handmatig geoogste Barbera wordt zorgvuldig geselecteerd en met een zachte benadering vergist, zodat kleur en aroma’s optimaal worden geëxtraheerd zonder de tannines hard te maken. Na de vergisting rijpt de wijn ongeveer 16 maanden in Franse eiken barriques van tweede gebruik, gevolgd door nog 2 tot 3 maanden rijping op fles voordat hij wordt vrijgegeven. Die keuze voor gebruikt hout geeft extra complexiteit, specerijen en een romigere textuur, maar laat het fruit en de frisheid van de Barbera duidelijk op de voorgrond staan.

Druivensamenstelling

Barbera – lagere delen van Barolo-wijngaarden
Deze Barbera d'Alba Superiore is 100% Barbera van eigen wijngaarden, uit de lagere delen van de percelen die de beste Barolo van het domein voortbrengen; de combinatie van oude stokken en kalkrijke Elvezische bodems geeft een wijn met veel intensiteit, rijp rood en zwart fruit en tegelijk een levendige frisheid.

Proefnotities en serveertips

Chiara Boschis Barbera d'Alba Superiore 2021 heeft een intense robijnrode kleur met paarse en purperen nuances. In de neus herken je een vinous geurprofiel met typische aroma’s van kleine rode en zwarte vruchten zoals kers, pruim en braam. In de mond is de wijn vol en robuust, met een sappige kern van rood en donker fruit, ondersteund door een stevige maar verfijnde structuur en een opvallend frisse zuurgraad die alles mooi in balans houdt. De afdronk is lang en smakelijk, met opnieuw veel fruit en een levendige, bijna mondwaterende frisheid. Serveer deze Barbera d'Alba Superiore idealiter rond 16 tot 18 °C. Aan tafel past hij uitstekend bij fijne vleeswaren en salumi, gevulde pasta zoals agnolotti of ravioli, geroosterd of gegrild vlees en bij rijke, krokant gebakken gerechten, waarbij zijn combinatie van kracht en frisheid hem tot een uitgesproken gastronomische wijn maakt.

Easy recommendation
Style: For Him
Actual reviewer, not paid to make this, nor was incentivized. Great value - these soaps last around 3 months each. Scents are non-offensive, soap doesn't leave my skin dry, and I feel clean afterward. They also lather up really well!

IMMEDIATE REACTION, PLUS FOLLOW UP AFTER A WEEK!
Style: For Him
**Package arrived LITERALLY 5 minutes ago, here is my immediate initial reaction, and then I'll actually post this after USING the soap and getting a better feel for the product.** Keeping in mind that smell is subjective, here are my knee jerk thoughts on the bars of soap: - Firstly, I can smell the soap through the bag (and box). Whatever scent this is, it's POTENT. - Opening the box, the bars of soap look a LITTLE small. Not egregiously so, but a little bit smaller than your average bar of soap; BUT I check them against a new bar of Dove soap that I have, and they are identical. The eyes are playing tricks on you with these. - Here is the breakdown of the 6 scents - Activated Charcoal. This is what I was HOPING would smell like the "Pine Tar" that other companies (like Dr. Squatch, which I've never used, btw) have, but it is the "soap-est" smelling soap, with a hint of tar. It smells a little bit like a can of new paint. - Tango Mango. IMHO, the best smelling of the 6, with strong citrus smells. Very lemon-y, but pleasant. - Eucamint. Ahhh, here's what was permiating out of the box. This smell is STRONG, with an AGGRESSIVE mint smell. Like, Ben Gay mint. And as strong to boot. It doesn't smell BAD, but it's hands down the strongest scent. - Oatmeal Shea. Meh. Kinda smells like an old coat that would be hanging in your grandfathers closet. It's not a BAD smell, but it has this weird odor to it, like when you leave a can of peanuts in your cupboard for a long time, and then go back and smell it. - Patchouli Lime. This one kind of smells like a mixture of Activated Charcoal, Eucamint and Oatmeal Shea. It smells like a room that you just painted a day or two ago, and it definitely has the Ben Gay after aroma lingering. - Apline Spice. This smells like a box. Like find an empty cardboard box, open it, and take a whiff. Boom, Alpine Spice. My least favorite. I will say, none of them STINK; as in there isn't a smell that I'm like, "ewww, I don't want to smell like AT ALL!" Which sounds weird, because I described some of them as "paint," "an old coat," and "a cardboard box," but I feel that those are just very passive smells, not aggressively bad ones. If there is a problem soap, I would assume it's going to be Eucamint, because it might just be too overpowering, although I've found that the more you smell them, they seem to mellow out. I imagine that after a shower with these, the smell will dissipate enough that it will be more mild. Still, with the exception of Tango Mango; a very good smelling soap mind you, I'd say they are all very "manly" scents, and I'm excited to try them out. Ok, so I'm a little over a week in, and here's my final take. (I made it through Activated Charcoal and Tango Mango): First, the scents ABSOLUTELY mellow out when used to actually shower with them. My wife, who admittedly isn't really up on me like that, hasn't even mentioned me smelling differently than the last 11 years. So, if she's even noticed, it's not on a level to make a fuss about. This is important because fresh from the box, these things have some powerful scents, but they are definitely tamed by washing with them. The bars last ABOUT 7 showers. Obviously, your mileage will vary based on how long you're in the shower, how much you scrub, how you store them, etc, but I was able to get 7 GOOD showers out of these. I have them in these natural sisal (whatever that is) exfoliating bags that help lather and store the soap, and really did some good scrubbing in my showers. The bars lather decently, but I'm not sure how much the bag helps with that. If you are a once a day showerer, a bar a week is a very fair approximation of what you'll get. I definitely felt.....SOMETHING I didn't before with my shower gel showers. I don't know if that's the moisturizing, or the exfoliation, but my skin felt a little different after showering. A decent buy. I'm not thrilled, but I'm not upset either. I don't think it changed my life, or even the way I shower, but I'm not mad at the experiment. I may try the Dr. Squatch soaps to see how all these stack up.

Convinced to make the switch
Style: Citrus
Love this soap. I was using Jukebox, but I'm making the switch. Crate 61 feels better on my skin, the bars last a little longer and the 6 pack is $15 cheaper than I was paying for 6 bars with the Jukebox subscription. I get extremely dirty at my job so I tend to go through soap faster than the average women. Jukebox bars would last me about 4 days. These will last 6 or 7 days. Jukebox bars were a definite upgrade from body wash, but it would irritate the sensitive areas. I don't have that issue with this soap. Jukebox bars smell nice in the shower, but I feel like the scent didn't last beyond that. Crate 61 leaves a pleasantly subtle smell on my skin after showering. The only benefit with Jukebox is that you can choose the individual soaps in your 6 pack, rather than selecting one of the collections.
