The 2016 Barolo Cannubi is characterized by chalky mineral notes that give the wine a sense of place. This wine features fruit from a southeast-facing parcel in Cannubi composed of loose, calcareous soils that tend to produce early-ripening fruit and nicely concentrated flavors. Elegant mineral tones are also part of the Cannubi package. The mouthfeel here is silky and tightly knit. Some 26,000 bottles were released.

A pure, intense and linear red, this exudes cherry, raspberry, rose, hay and white pepper aromas and flavors. Offers plenty of finesse but also a firm spine of tannins, which bode well for future development. Features fine harmony and a long fruity, minerally and savory aftertaste. Best from 2025 through 2045. 1,250 cases made, 900 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
