The 2021 Barolo Cannubi is dense and powerful right out of the gate. Broad, ample and explosive, the 2021 has it all. Time in the glass brings out the wine's aromatic presence. Readers will find a Barolo of tremendous structure and pedigree. Blue-toned fruit, leather, licorice, incense and dried flowers are all amplified to the maximum. All this needs is time. The only question is how much. Sadly, production is just 4,000 bottles. Magnificent.

Another stunning wine from Comm. G.B. Burlotto, the 2021 Barolo Cannubi is gorgeous with silky and long-lasting sensations. I love the shape of this wine, its contoured profile, linearity and neatly tucked-in elegance. There are no loose ends, with stacked aromas of cherry, blue flower and dusty chalk that extend to the fine-knit texture of the mouthfeel. Vintner Fabio Alessandria leaves us all wondering how he achieves this magic.
