The 2009 Barolo Cannubi is the most elegant and floral of the three, although the brilliance of its bouquet is slightly dimmed by the heat of the vintage. In fact, the wine feels hollow at points, but offers a very fine tannic structure. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2020.
Luigi Einaudi served as the second President of the Italian Republic (1948-1955). In his younger years, in 1897, he purchased the San Giacomo cascina in Dogliani with 40 “days” of vineyard. In popular farming culture, the size of a piece of land was estimated by how many days it took to work the land with a pair of oxen. Today, the estate counts 52 hectares of vineyards (mostly in Dogliani) including seven hectares in Barolo and three in Barbaresco.
