Francesco Rinaldi, Barolo Cannubi Vintage:2016 floral and wet stone scents

floral and wet stone scents

underbrush and a touch of animale that can also be found on the generous and quite fleshy flavors that possess excellent volume as well as buckets of dry extract that almost render the firm and ripe tannins invisible on the massively long finish

offering up aromas of waxy citrus fruit

with a touch of mocha despite the lack of new oak

but it's gorgeously perfumed

Francesco Rinaldi, Barolo Cannubi Vintage:2016 floral and wet stone scentsThe 2016 Barolo Cannubi shows all of the raciness of this site to great effect. Crushed flowers, mint, spice and red berry fruit fill out the layers as this pliant, silky Barolo shows off its considerable allure. Soft edges (for a young Barolo) give the Cannubi notable immediacy and tons of sheer appeal. The Cannubi is a wine of pure pleasure. Antonio Galloni
