Product Notes

Michele Chiarlo's Cannubi Barolo DOCG is a sublime Italian red wine originating from Piedmont's renowned vineyards. This wine showcases profound complexity with opulent layers of fruit flavours, spices and hints of chocolate. Intensely aromatic, it presents charming notes of rose petal and liquorice, a character of Nebbiolo grapes. This full-bodied wine graces the palate with silky tannins, impressive acidity, and a lasting finish. The wine is aged for a minimum of 2 years in oak barrels, achieving its rich colour and magnificent aging potential. This quintessential Barolo is a perfect companion to game, roasts and aged cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Cannubi is the apogee of Barolo. Aromatically intense, aristocratic and with superb persistence, it shows notes of blackcurrants, liquorice, cinnamon, mint and tobacco. Elegant and seductive, with a great structure and a silky texture, this celebrated cru is noted for its extraordinary completeness and personality.
