Scavino's 1990s are immense, statuesque wines of exceptional richness and complexity. The 1990 Barolo Cannubi is a stunningly elegant wine with greater depth and richness than the regular cuvee. It offers a fascinating display of grace allied to considerable power and richness. The fruit's sweetness (from low yields and ripe grapes) is marvelous to behold. This flashy, complex wine is approachable now, yet capable of lasting for 10-15 years. Importer: a Marc di Grazia Selection, Michael Skurnick Wines, Westbury, NY.

Has great presence, displaying an array of berry, anise, licorice, tar and rose petal notes through a lacy veneer of chewy tannins. A big wine with dramatic flavors. Best after 2000. 300 cases made.??–null??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
