Description
The first vintage of the brothers’ Cannubi was 2018, with everything up until that point going into the Barolo Classico. The 2020 is a tremendous addition and is Diego and Damiano’s favourite so far. Hailing from one of, if not the, most prized MGAs in Barolo, their 2020 Cannubi is marked by vibrant wild strawberry, electric energy and the finest, silky tannins. This boasts notes of fresh leather and tobacco, while earthy spice plays a compelling supporting role. This is only bottled in magnum, making it an even more memorable drinking experience.

About this wine
Nebbiolo
Nebbiolo is the grape behind the Barolo and Barbaresco wines and is hardly ever seen outside the confines of Piedmont. It takes its name from "nebbia" which is Italian for fog, a frequent phenomenon in the region.
