Terrific and worth a close look

offering a gorgeous array of almond

Here too there is a poached plum character to the slightly fresher nose of earth and soft wood nuances

The fruit still shows plenty of intensity and the tannins have softened

Burlotto, Barolo Cannubi other_regions Terrific and worth a closeThis historic estate based in Verduno is renowned for its Monvigliero bottling, but in 2015 its Cannubi from the village of Barolo seems even finer. The nose is sweet, floral and lifted, with no trace of overripeness. Initially sleek, the palate grows in austerity, which is often a characteristic of this wine. But this grip and structure are welcome and don't dominate the spiciness and persistence of the fruit. Very long.
