Paolo Scavino, Barolo Cannubi

Paolo Scavino, Barolo CannubiThe 2014 Barolo Cannubi is one of the more potent wines in this range. Even so, there is very little in the way of Cannubi sensuality or character. This is another straightforward, fruity Barolo to drink young. Antonio Galloni

this will work just fine

pure and highly complex red berry fruit aromas nuanced by a hint of iron oxide (a rusty earth character) that precedes rich

green apple

classically austere Barolo that will especially delight readers with traditionally leaning palates

Almost half the vines from which this is produced are nearly a century old

but the fruit here is even more gorgeous and seductive

The straight Pira is quite delicate

licorice and menthol all appear later

Mild reduction knocks down the nose but it seems reasonably clear that the underlying fruit is ripe

Today the wine remains quite fresh and in need of further bottle age

There is good verve and reasonably good detail to the lightly mineral-inflected medium-bodied flavors that possess solid concentration on the lingering and balanced finish

this is an excellent
