Cannubi Boschis has been vinified separately since 1985: this decision by Luciano, which brought the concept of the “cru” to the Langa district, has led to the attribution to our family of the title of “innovators”. Like few other Langa vineyards, Cannubi Boschis continues to live up to expectations year after year, regardless of the seasonal progress.
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:
(November 2011). Good dark red color. Aromas of strawberry and red cherries, with licorice and layers of red flowers and mushroom, framed by wood notes of chocolate and vanilla. Good and long, with persistence and focus, this nose shows the terroir of CB beautifully. On the palate the wine is deep and rich. Flavors of red fruits, mushrooms and flowers with licorice and violet.The tannins are structured but completely ripe and mature. The finish is long and dry, with good fruit and appealing minerality. An expressive wine with a focused nose and precisely rendered palate.
