WINE DESCRIPTION

Barolo DOCG Cannubi is a prized Italian wine crafted from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. Nestled on south-facing slopes in the famed Cannubi Vineyard of Barolo, the vines thrive in calcareous and clay marl soil with a touch of sand. Utilizing the Archetto variation of the Guyot system, with a planting density of 4,000 vines per hectare, meticulous care goes into cultivating these grapes for exceptional quality.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Barolo Cannubi from Borgogno is a magnificent wine.Its deep ruby color and savory nose of sweet cherry, leather, and tobacco make it an intriguing and complex wine. On the palate, this wine is full-bodied and balanced, with flavors of ripe plum, blackberry, and cedar combined with a firm tannic structure. This Barolo has a beautiful finish that lingers with a hint of licorice. Enjoy this classic Barolo Cannubi with grilled steak or a hearty pasta dish.
