Marchesi di Barolo Barolo Cannubi | 2019 | 750ml

About This Wine

Cannubi is one of the most famous hillsides in Barolo, on marl soils mixing clay, sand and limestone. Marchesi di Barolo first bottled it as a single-vineyard wine with the 1973 vintage. This listing includes a 750ml and a magnum.

At the suggestion of wine writer Luigi Veronelli, the winery began bottling its top Barolo crus separately in the 1970s, starting with Cannubi in 1973, then Sarmassa, and later Coste di Rose.

Marchesi di Barolo's cellars sit in the village of Barolo, beside the castle of the Falletti family. Marchesa Giulia Falletti is credited with shaping the wine that became Barolo in the 19th century, and the Abbona family has run the cellars since 1929. Some of the Marchesa's original casks are still in use.

Serving
