1997 Barolo Cannubi

The dark ruby-colored, internationally styled 1997 Barolo Vigna Cannubi shows plenty of new oak, but it does not overwhelm the wine's rich black raspberry, currant, and cherry fruit. Sweet, dense, and full-bodied, with low acidity and firm tannin, this pure, clean Barolo will drink well young, yet age for 15-20 years. Jun 2001, www.robertparker.com
