2014 Barolo Cannubi, E Pira e Figli, Piedmont

2014 Barolo Cannubi, E Pira e Figli, Piedmont

Cannubi is the sweet spot of Barolo, in the heart of the commune. Here, sandy soils and a warm microclimate produce a sensuous, silky wine. There’s wonderful purity, and delicacy on the long, saline fnish.

Tasting notes

The 2014 Barolo Cannubi from Chiara Boschis is soft, supple and surprisingly giving at this early stage. Exotic spice and citrus overtones add to wine's considerable allure. Succulent red cherry, cinnamon, orange peel and rose petal notes all lift from the glass in this gracious, sublime Barolo. This is one of the more accessible 2014s I tasted during my fall trip. Given its midweight structure, the 2014 Cannubi may turn out to have a relatively short life, but then again, Nebbiolo often surprises. Today, the wine is exceptionally beautiful.
