On the palate, it reveals thick layers of dark fruit, cherry, and spice, complemented by sweet tannins and impactful texture. The wine exhibits generosity and expansiveness, characteristic of the Cannubi hill site, even in the cooler 2019 vintage. This Barolo is structured and poised for long-term aging, with an anticipated drinking window extending from 2029 to 2049.
