2006 Barolo Cannubi

A shade darker ruby than 2005 Cannubi. Very lifted, like freshly peeled orange skin and minerally notes. Needs lots of air to open up. Complex with depth of fruit. No sign of dried-fruit aromas here. Sweet and concentrated, immediately lifted by acidity and rolled over by massive, but finely grained tannin. With a certain lightness of touch. Jan 11, www.jancisrobinson.com, Drink 2011-2022
