Cabernet Sauvignon dominates this wine with 90%

Far less impressive after bottling than it was from cask

The recent editions have been nothing short of spectacular

of this stunning Riserva

Note however that this is one very structured wine that will require a lengthy stay in a cool cellar to arrive at its full peak

Chiara Boschis (Pira), Barolo Cannubi other_regions Cabernet Sauvignon dominates this wineDeep, bright ruby red. Sweet, spicy aromas of redcurrant and plum. Still rather closed in the mouth following the recent bottling, but the plummy fruit and spicy wood appear to be nicely integrated, with the result that the wine is not at all overly oaky. Rather silky texture. Finishes with big, ripe tannins that spread out to coat the palate. Stephen Tanzer
