What makes Barolo Cannubi Riserva 2016 special?
Cannubi is undoubtedly the most famous vineyard in Barolo, a cru coveted by many, dreamed by others and cultivated by very few lucky ones. Everyone recognizes it as the epitome of the souls of Barolo, the place where it finds its most complete and harmonious expression. To honor this extraordinary vocation and the venerable history of this vineyard, Michele Chiarlo has chosen to produce Barolo Docg Cannubi Riserva, with its first vintage dating 2016.
Michele Chiarlo’s Cannubi Riserva is a brazenly bold wine that strives to capture the soul of perfection. The wine is exclusively vinified during the best seasons, when climate and weather conditions have allowed the slow and balanced polyphenolic ripening of the grapes.
In the cellar, the production philosophy fully strengthens longevity. Slow fermentation in contact with the skins in vats (lasting for 30-40 days) facilitates an important, noble and balanced extraction. But refinement is what endows the wine with its majestic quality: 6 years of aging prior release to the market, of which 3 years are spent in large barrels and another 3 in the bottle.
The result is a sumptuous wine that reaches the glass at the heart of its evolution but can safely stand the test of time for another 15 years. An incredibly magnetic and austere Barolo that magnifies the extraordinarily classic strength of the Cannubi vineyard and stands at the top of Michele Chiarlo’s production.
2016 VINTAGE
2016 ★★★★★
Characterized by mild temperatures and low rainfall in winter, 2016 experienced classic weather in spring and summer. Slow and gradual ripening of the grapes, excellent diurnal temperature variation and long harvest period, stable weather. These conditions favored the development of important aromas in perfectly healthy grapes with particularly thick skins. In the cellar, this Barolo has promptly revealed an extraordinary character: great caliber and elegance, suitable for long aging. An extraordinarily remarkable vintage.
The lot includes
- 1 oak box containing 3 bottles of Cannubi Barolo Docg Riserva (0.75 l)
