Burlotto, Barolo Cannubi Vintage:2019 backward and firmly structured effort

backward and firmly structured effort will need at least 6 to 8 years to add flesh and complexity and will likely require fully 15+ years to reveal its full potential

it should blossom in another five years or so

this should improve as it fills out

Perhaps this is a little sharper than the 2015 at the moment without the same roundness or depth

Burlotto, Barolo Cannubi Vintage:2019 backward and firmly structured effortThis historic estate based in Verduno is renowned for its Monvigliero bottling, but in 2015 its Cannubi from the village of Barolo seems even finer. The nose is sweet, floral and lifted, with no trace of overripeness. Initially sleek, the palate grows in austerity, which is often a characteristic of this wine. But this grip and structure are welcome and don't dominate the spiciness and persistence of the fruit. Very long.
