Barolo, Cannubi, 2006

In the hands of Enrico Scavino, the outstanding vineyard of the Barolo commune, Cannubi, produces the perfect compromise between power and elegance. This is one of the finest, most showy Cannubis I have tasted after merely a year in bottle, it has real wow factor, sleek focused and enormously charming, sweet ripe but tight knit fruit, a very intense, finely poised but incredibly sensual wine, this is all about texture, bright red berry fruits, hints of morello and dark chocolate, wonderful loganberry and bramble fruit along with strong scents of Asian spice.
