Product: Perhaps the most famous hill in Italy, Cannubi is the most celebrated and prestigious vineyard with the Barolo designation. Historically, it'sย the oldest Italian cru, recognised in 1752. Everything here conspires to create greatness: the perfect combination of altitude, exposure, soil composition, and microclimate result in a Barolo of uncontested prominence.

The Barolo Cannubi is fabulous. Itโ€™s sumptuous and opulent with the structure to match. It sets the tone from the very first taste - rose, sweet red cherry, fresh mint, and sweet incense โ€“ a few of the many notes that jump out of the glass. On the palate, it stands firm with gravitas and sensuality. Itโ€™s the complete package.ย
