Barolo Cannubi by Francesco Rinaldi & Figl is an elegant expression of this famous red wide, made with 100% Nebbiolo grapes coming from Cannubi cru in Baorlo. It's a strong, classic wine, with an excellent ageing potential. In the glass it is ruby red with bright maroon shades. The bouquet is intense, wide, floral and fruity, with hints of cherry, ripe strawberry, plum, sweet spices and dried flowers. The sip is vigorous, balanced with great persistence and soft tannic texture. Barolo Cannubi by Francesco Rinaldi & Figli is recommended with red meat, roasts, game and matured cheese.
95 Points - Robert Parker
This delicate Nebbiolo opens to wild berry, rose, pressed violet, earth and powered licorice. The 2018 Barolo Cannubi takes a classic approach and underlines the elegant character of this most celebrated MGA site in the village of Barolo. The wine feels light and weightless when it first hits the palate, but don’t be deceived. It offers ample power and length once you take it all in. (Monica Larner)
94 Points - Vinous
The 2018 Barolo Cannubi is bright and effusive, as wines form this site tend do be. Crushed flowers, spice, new leather and macerated cherry are some of the notes that soar from the glass. The Cannubi offers fine depth and tons of site character, both of which were hard to achieve in 2018. (Antonio Galloni)
This has earthy aromas recalling black olive, new leather and ripe dark-skinned fruit that mingle with underbrush and violet. Savory and ripe, the full-bodied palate also has an earthy charm, offering game, truffle, raspberry compote, cherry steeped in spirits, licorice and mint framed in tightly knit, fine-grained tannins. Fresh acidity provides balance. Kerin O’Keefe
