Damilano Barolo Cannubi 1752 Riserva 2016 - First Bottle

Reviews

100 James Suckling -
This is a phenomenal Barolo from a benchmark vintage. It’s so powerful and structured with toned and muscular tannins that run the length of the wine. Classic structure. Full-bodied but tight and intense. Flavors of forest floor, fresh mushroom, truffle, and cedar. Dried flowers, too. It goes on for minutes. This needs at least eight years to soften. Leave in the cellar! One of the greatest Cannubis ever

Perfection at last! Of course, it's with non-other than the great Damilano Cannubi Riserva. Five years in barrel and two additional years in bottle before release. Safe to say, these guys want this to be drinking upon arrival in the cellar. Garnet ruby red in color, the bouquet is intense and balanced, with notes of violet, red fruit, cherry and plum, spices, liquorice, cocoa, leather and tobacco. Dry, robust, full-bodied, very persistent, rich and velvety
