January 3, 2024 - Classic young Barolo that was delicious with sun-dried tomato Gnudi.
Prototypical nose of ripe red cherries, roofing tar, crushed rose, and leather.
Palate showed a beautiful balance of rich tannin and bright acidity.
Quite pretty.
November 25, 2023 - A beautiful wine with seductive aromas of rose petals. While on the drier side, we all enjoyed the wine and it was excellent with lasagna. Leave for 3-5 years to soften and gain more depth.
March 22, 2023 - Isn't this just super! Monstrous nose of leather and sweaty hairy mammal and cloves. Sweet, luscious and illuminating wine of cascading love and caresses. This is a fantastic and deliciously seductive Barolo.
December 23, 2022 - Pinkish/brick red rim, and ruby center. Dried red fruits, strawberry, and rose water. More voluptuous and fleshy than 2016 Barolo Bussia. Medium high acidity and silky tannin. Long finish. We opened the Bussia together with Cannubi. At time of drinking, I preferred the Bussia.
February 14, 2022 - Red Cherries, dried cherries, red plum, sweet floral - roses? violets?, cream
This Barolo is more round and polished than I would expect from this young age. It's lacking the tannins that tend to bite back with younger Nebbiolo wines. I'm a fan, though.
Dry, high tannins, medium (+) acidity, medium(+) body, high alcohol, long finish
January 6, 2022 - Texturally smooth, round and creamy but just lacking bite/grip. Moderate acid and tannin but needing time for the flavors to emerge. Dried cherry, leather and mineral. Not giving much so either needs a long decant or 10 year (guessing the latter). I would not have guessed this as a Cru.
*some juicy cherry does emerge after several hours. Just needs time.
August 15, 2020 - Jämfört med Bussia upplever jag denna mera tillgänglig vid ung ålder. Öppnar upp efter en kort stund i glaset och uppvisar både balans, längd och intensitet. En gnutta mandel och mörka körsbär i förgrunden, och en viss sötfruktighet i eftersmaken. Helt underbar och jag älskar tanken att jag har åtta flaskor till att konsumera i olika mognadsfaser.
