Fruity nose with red fruits, flowers, metals, light earth and herbs.
Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with raspberries, fresh picked cherries, vegetables, light wood, spices, coffee and peppercorn.
Spicy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty, yet young, Barolo from the famous Cannubi plot in Barolo. Light and airy. Elegant, and feels very big.
Not very approachable yet, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Showing great potential to age nicely in the 10 years, and beyond.
100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged in large oak barrels for 32 months. A limited Production.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$100.

I’ve got one tucked away to open in 5-10 years. This gives incentive not to jump the gun.

Love this producer. Just had this bottle as well the other day, I felt it was very juicy, vibrant and super elegant in its youth with silky fine tannin. Young Barolo is my guilty pleasure. I also love this producer’s Langhe Nebbiolo, it’s an excellent wine and one of the best values I’ve found for around $25.

My wallet did not need me to see this post. I have been on an absolute Nebbiolo kick this summer. Costco’s 2020 Kirkland Barolo being re-released alongside the 2021 at $20 hasn’t been helping.
