The 2006 Barolo Cannubi impresses for its definition and elegance. A finely-spun fabric of mint, flowers and red cherries caresses the palate all the way through to the silky, refined finish, showing gorgeous inner perfume and the elegance that has made this hillside so famous. As successful as the Cannubi is, it does lose a little intensity on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021. These new releases from Cascina Adelaide show quite a bit of potential. The estate seems to be working with high-quality fruit, even if today the wines lack that visceral thrill that might elevate them to another level. Hopefully that will come with time.

Strong eucalyptus, menthol and pine aromas and flavors complement the cherry and berry in this spicy version. Chewy and dense, with an expansive finish of sweet fruit and spices. Best from 2013 through 2030. 250 cases made, 200 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

Spice, sweet toasty oak, dark fruit, burnt rubber and floral perfume. Ripe, supple palate of sweet fruit, soft tannins and a nice balance. An appealing wine. Alc: 14%.

Cascina Adelaide consistently offers a modern (ie: plump, ripe, dense) taste profile on its important wines. Even this expression from the Cannubi cru, a vineyard noted for the elegant and ethereal nature of its wines, delivers a bolder, bigger style. Aromas include roasted espresso bean, blackberry and polished black stone. ——M.L.(12/1/2010)—— 92
