Description
Barolo Cannubi 2016 DOCG Magnum Damilano
Barolo Cannubi 2016 DOCG Magnum by Damilano is a wine that symbolizes the Langhe, expressed through one of the most famous and prestigious crus of Barolo. This magnum format enhances the evolution of Nebbiolo, offering a tasting experience that is broad, elegant, and suitable for important occasions. It is a proposal of great charm for those seeking a Barolo that reflects its territory, capable of uniting depth, finesse, and longevity.
Territory and wine style
The Cannubi vineyard represents one of the most recognized areas of the Barolo DOCG denomination, in the municipality of Barolo. Here, viticultural tradition meets a historic and particularly suited hilly context, with soils that decisively contribute to the wine's personality. The presence of sand, silt, and clay, along with its location at about 280 meters above sea level and its east/southeast exposure, favors a refined, fragrant style that is also structured. Damilano interprets this cru with rigor and attention, enhancing the classic identity of the Barolo Cannubi 2016 DOCG Magnum.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents the typical character of Barolo, with an intense and vibrant color that suggests good concentration. On the nose, aromas of cherry and plum emerge, accompanied by hints of rose, violet, and tobacco, in a complex and harmonious aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine shows structure, elegance, and a tannic texture that is present yet fine, supported by a freshness that extends the sip. The finish is persistent, consistent with the vocation of the cru and with the classic and authoritative style of the Barolo Cannubi 2016 DOCG Magnum.
Recommended pairings
This wine pairs wonderfully with structured and flavorful dishes from Piedmontese and Italian cuisine. It is ideal with braised meats, significant roasts, game, mushrooms, tajarin with ragù, rich risottos, and aged cheeses. Its elegance also makes it suitable for slowly cooked meat preparations, where tannins and acidity can interact with succulence and depth of flavor. The Barolo Cannubi 2016 DOCG Magnum is also perfect as a meditation wine at the end of a meal.
Serving temperature
Serve the Barolo Cannubi 2016 DOCG Magnum at a temperature between 16 and 18°C. In an important vintage and in magnum format, it can benefit from early oxygenation to promote the opening of the bouquet and the harmony of the sip. A short time in a decanter can be useful if the wine is opened young compared to its evolutionary potential.
Why buy it
Choosing this wine means opting for a great Barolo cru signed by Damilano, with a clear territorial imprint and an elegant personality. The magnum format adds value to the bottle, both for presentation and for its ability to best accompany the wine's evolution over time. The Barolo Cannubi 2016 DOCG Magnum is an ideal choice for collectors, enthusiasts, and for those wishing to purchase wine online with a prestigious, authentic profile suitable for the most special occasions.
