WINE DESCRIPTION
Davide Carlone Boca is an exquisite DOC wine exclusively crafted in the province of Novara, specifically within the communal territories of Grignasco, Maggiora, Cavallirio, Prato Sesia, and, of course, Boca itself. Nestled in this region, the vines take root in rocky and rugged volcanic soil, imparting a distinctive saline richness to the grapes that makes Boca a truly unique and exceptional wine. After three years of meticulous aging, including a minimum of two years in oak or chestnut barrels, the wine is bottled and further refined for several months. This meticulous process results in a Boca wine that boasts a particular and singular character, a testament to the terroir and Davide Carlone's dedication to producing exceptional Piedmontese wines.
