From the heart of Barolo. From the heart of the village of Barolo the sinuous Cannubi hill stretches northwards, with vineyards on the east and west sides. From this southeastfacing part of the hill, historically called Cannubi Boschis, this Barolo is born, which brilliantly displays Nebbiolo’s regal character. The site possesses a marl and moderately compact soil with a microclimate that every year surprises for the transparency of its expression. Fruit of Experience. In the hierarchy of Barolo, Cannubi Boschis is precious. We have cultivated it and proudly made its wines since 1985; with the certainty of its unique and extraordinary productive potential.
Grape Varietals:
100% Nebbiolo
Tasting Notes:
The peculiar growing season of 2011 – a relatively cooler spring and summer, then torridly hot from early August thru the end of the harvest – gave textbook examples of warm-season Nebbiolo character. The nose is seductive, very fruit forward with great floral and licorice notes. On the palate it is voluptuous and seductive, with long, sweet red fruit, fine tannins and beautiful balanced freshness. As the wine opens, balsamic and spice notes emerge. There are plenty of ripe, soft tannins and subtle hints of wood. The finish is long and clean. This is a Cannubi Boschis to enjoy relatively young, though a few more years in the bottle will not hurt.
