Pio Boffa, Piedmont Wine Patriarch, Dies of COVID-19
I hope this is the last COVID obituary I write.
A fourth-generation winemaker, Boffa spent four decades converting Pio Cesare from an acclaimed négociant to a high-end estate winery with more than 173 vineyard acres in Barolo and Barbaresco. He was perhaps best known as a tireless global ambassador for Piedmont wines.
