The 2013 Barolo Cannubi is a powerful, intense wine, with tons of depth and powerful tannins that are going to need time to soften. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, leather and torrefaction notes give the wine its decidedly brooding personality. Of all the Scavino 2013 Barolos, the Cannubi is the wine that appears most influenced by French oak. Scavino’s Cannubi is usually quite sensual. Today, the 2013 comes across as a bit heavy and monolithic.

.Aromas of strawberries, flowers and tea follow through to a full body, a dense center palate and a tannic and structured finish. Big and powerful Cannubi. Tiny production. Drink in 2022.
