Cannubi is the superstar of Barolo. This wine possesses cinnamon, clove and caramel aromas. The palate brings juicy blackberries and toast. There is a rich, sweet mouthfeel that is derived from fruit concentration, and not residual sugar. The tannins are sizeable but are in balance with the fruit and acidity, and all the components fall brilliantly into place to make a great wine. ——C.S.(11/15/2002)—— 93
