Barolo Cannubi 1752 Riserva 2011 Damilano

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (94)

The 2011 Barolo Riserva Cannubi 1752 opens to a dark color and saturation, which belies a wine of thinner mouthfeel but huge intensity on the nose. The bouquet here is evolved, with licorice, tar and tilled earth. It is dark, well saturated and deep in terms of aromas, but again, it feels a little short in the mouth, where it loses its intensity. This is a nice expression that has not fully fleshed out yet, despite 60 months of slow and careful aging in large oak casks. Give it more time. Some 6,000 bottles were released.

James Suckling (97)

This is rich and exotic with ripe-berry and raw-meat aromas with undertones of dried strawberries and fresh flowers. Full body, round and velvety tannins and a delicious finish. Decadent and satisfying.
