The Poderi Luigi Einaudi 2017 Barolo Cannubi draws its fruit from a very special site (as all Cannubi enthusiasts can attest to) with grayish Sant'Agata marls soils with a mix of sand, clay and calcareous material. These light, well-draining soils tend to produce high-pitched wines with plenty of lifted or vertical aromatic intensity. The wine boasts aromas of wild berry, purple rose, dry mint and crushed stone. The wine's texture is lean and silky. There's plenty of power to drive the wine's future bottle evolution. Production is 12,000 bottles.

As much savory as fruity, this red reveals juniper, menthol, cherry, tar and tobacco flavors, allied to a lithe frame. Remains vibrant through the lingering finish, where the tannins emerge. Best from 2024 through 2040. 1,000 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
