Winemaker Notes: Garnet ruby red in color with orange reflections. The bouquet is ample and embracing, with pronounced fruity notes of cherry and plum and notes of tobacco, licorice and cocoa. On the palate, the wine is harmonious, pleasantly dry with soft tannins, broad and full-bodied. Persistent finish.
Cannubi is a sumptuous wine, perfect with the full-flavored Piedmontese cuisine such as white truffle -based dishes and braised meat. Ideal with the refined dishes of the great international gastronomy.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
James Suckling - "Sweet berries, tar and hazelnuts on the nose with some iodine and dry earth. Full-bodied with a solid center palate of juicy fruit and powerful, fine tannins. It’s racy and very long. Needs time to soften. Better after 2023."
Decanter - "A classy, elegant wine packed full of dried fruits, dates, fragrant wild berries, warm spice, and mocha with firm yet chewy tannins. Needs time."
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "The 2017 Barolo Cannubi is pliant and delicate, with subtle and interwoven aromas of wild rose, redcurrant, grilled herb, crushed stone and smoky licorice. In characteristic Cannubi fashion, the wine appears quite delicate and almost understated in terms of aromas, but then it fleshes out and brings in a whole new dimension with ample power and consistency once it hits the palate. The Damilano family has done a good job in a difficult vintage."
Wine Spectator - "Intense aromas of leather, spice, tamarind, tobacco, tar and menthol mingle with cherry in this complex, expressive red. Broad and also fresh and focused, with excellent length to the savory, spicy finish."
Wine Enthusiast - "Aromas of camphor, underbrush, crushed herb and iris come together in the glass. The brawny, concentrated palate shows the heat of the vintage, offering cherry marinated in spirits, prune, licorice and baking spice framed in assertive, close-grained tannins that grip the finish. You'll also notice the heat of evident alcohol on the close."
