The Boschis subzone lies near the northern end of the Cannubi hill, directly across from the Sandrone cellars. The estate farms 1.9 hectares of 40-year-old vines here, with a particularly good south and south-east exposure in a small amphitheatre, or conca, that holds early morning warmth. The soils are marine deposits of calcareous clay with sand and drain very well. Masnaghetti's Enciclopedia delle Grandi Vigne del Barolo notes that wines from this terroir generally have good body, much elegance and more polished tannins than other Cannubi wines. Winemaking follows Le Vigne, with a little longer on skins, ageing in mainly used 500-litre French oak casks and bottling unfiltered. Where Le Vigne is lifted and perfumed, Aleste is deeper, darker and more mineral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magnum will slow its evolution and reward two decades of patience; decant when young. Serve at 16-18°C with braised beef, hare or aged hard cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
