Decanted and tasted over 24 hours. The wine remained so tightly wound for the whole period, however, it's precision faded the last 2 hours. Tasting it every 1-2 hours, the wine's structure took on many personalities but the fruit always stayed with a sweet red and blue fruit quality. By the 23rd hour the fruit began to fade. This wine needs some bottle aging. #barolo #cannubi

2006 vintage. Only for those hunting classic Barolo...Volatile aspect but if you can manage to get through it, it reveals a bitting acidity, sour cherries, tight and abundant tannins and bags of spices on the finish. Great value for money and miles away to be fully mature. Just happy to have one case in storage...9.5 for today but will get near to 10 tomorrow.

Classic fig, prune and dates showing on the nose with some herbacious notes in the background. Sour cherry flavors spring up on the palate to contrast the eartiness.

Business lunch wine that paired well with everything from the arugula salad to the tagliatelle bolognese. Light and airy with crispy acidity yet a smooth and rounded finish I’ll definitely be looking for more!
