'Cannubi' Barolo DOCG Damilano 2016 MAGNUM in Wooden Box

Cannubi is considered the Grand Cru of Barolo , an extraordinary wine in terms of style and elegance. The absolute quality of the grapes from the Cannubi hill is determined by the particular composition of the soil: they are undeveloped soils, made up of clayey grey-whitish marls on the surface. The land where the Damilano vineyards are located has a high percentage of sand (up to 45%) which gives the grapes intense aromas of cherry, plum and tobacco, evolving rose and violet. Little potassium, good calcium and magnesium give the wine finesse and elegance. With an intense and lively color, the wine has a high polyphenolic concentration. The eye is struck by its garnet ruby red color with limited presence of orange reflections and an ample, enveloping bouquet, with evident fruity notes of cherry and plum and evolved hints of tobacco, licorice and cocoa. When tasted, the palate is enveloped in a harmonious, pleasantly dry flavour, with soft tannins and sensations of body and fullness.
