Product Description
AG 98 "The 2006 Barolo Cannubi Boschis is a wine of pedigree, nuance and stylishness. Fresh and vibrant in the glass, the 2016 is developing beautifully in bottle. Sweet floral notes add lift to the dark Cannubi Boschis fruit. Sandrone's Cannubi Boschis has never been this finessed, this elegant. This is the best bottle of the 2006 I have tasted. What a head-turner it is! (Drink between 2021-2036)" Antonio Galloni
RP 97 "The 2006 Barolo Cannubi Boschis is seductive, round and sweet in its ripe dark fruit. The wine continues to gain weight in the glass, showing a level of density that nearly manages to cover the tannins. Floral notes add lift on the finish. This is a powerful, linear Cannubi Boschis with tons of energy and muscle, but it will require quite a bit of patience. Sandrone harvests his three parcels in Cannubi Boschis separately. Vinification takes place in stainless steel. The wines undergo malolactic fermentation and are aged in 500-liter barrels (roughly 20% new) for a year. Once the final blend is assembled, the wine goes back into oak for another year prior to being bottled in the spring. Sandrone is one of the earliest producers to bottle, which he does to preserve as much freshness as possible. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2031." Antonio Galloni for The Wine Advocate
