Cannubi Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

Ruby/ brick in color with medium intensity.

Strong nose of red fruits with earth, light vegetables, light wood, tobacco and chocolate notes.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with raspberries, cherries, spices, peppercorn, light wood, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, earth and light vegetables.

Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 5 year old Barolo from the famous Canubi Vineyard is still a little rigid right now, but already enjoyable. Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 20 years, with good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Wine Advocate 93 points.

Very tasty and a good food wine that will pair nicely with a big piece of steak.

100% Nebbiolo grapes were only 20% destemmed. Aged for 3 years in large Slavonian oak barrels.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$180.

Riserva Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1970

Dense and masculine. Broad white thick fruit. Nice rounded edges. Lacks a little of the complexity of the 67 and 64 but good solid fruit. — 2 months ago

Pianezzo Dolcetto di Dogliani 2022

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2022 pours, a deep, ruby/purple color with a transparent core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with a mix of tart and ripe, mostly black with some blue fruits: black berries, plums, black licorice, Alpine herbs and purple flowers and dried earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium- tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finishes medium. Overall, this is an impressive Dogliani and I’d gladly take more of this in my life. Drink now. — 25 days ago

Interesting to taste. It reminds of some PiWi varieties. Less pleasant to drink and to enjoy. — a month ago

Riserva Barolo 1947

Soft brown in color. Toasted notes with dried fruit, soft plum, tar and some high toned acidity. A slightly austere palate but a haunting fragrant quality. Very pretty. You need to lean in a bit to see the beauty — 2 months ago

Riserva Barolo Nebbiolo 1924

The color of weak coffee with some bottle of the bottom gunk. Va on the nose and light notes of roses and dried fruit. On the palate very pure and lifted. Obviously aged but softening with air and bright and pretty. What a surprise given it’s a centurion. — 2 months ago
