Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Nov 18
The 2014 Barolo Cannubi is an intriguing wine, as it is not especially sensual in this vintage, but instead packs a serious punch. The flavors are bright and perfumed, with plenty of chalk and white pepper overtones that add energy. Today, the 2014 is tightly wound, and yet it is also super-expressive. Readers who can be patient will be rewarded, but the 2014 Cannubi is not as obviously compelling as some other recent vintages have been.

Barolo

Barolo, the "King of Wines," is a prestigious red from Piedmont, Italy, made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes. Known for deep complexity, Barolo offers rich flavours of dark cherries, roses, truffles, and spices, with high acidity and firm tannins. It ages exceptionally well, evolving in depth and nuance. Barolo's diverse terroirs create a range of styles, from powerful to delicate. Top producers include Gaja, Bruno Giacosa, Giuseppe Rinaldi, and Marchesi di Barolo, all of whom exemplify Barolo's tradition and quality.
