  1. Ruby/ brick in color with medium intensity.

    Strong nose of red fruits with earth, light vegetables, light wood, tobacco and chocolate notes.

    Medium bodied with medium acidity.

    Dry on the palate with raspberries, cherries, spices, peppercorn, light wood, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, earth and light vegetables.

    Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

    This 5 year old Barolo from the famous Canubi Vineyard is still a little rigid right now, but already enjoyable. Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel.

    Will continue to age nicely in the next 20 years, with good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

    Wine Advocate 93 points.

    Very tasty and a good food wine that will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.

    100% Nebbiolo grapes were only 20% destemmed. Aged for 3 years in large Slavonian oak barrels.

    14.5% alcohol by volume.

    91 points.

    $180.
