Barolo Cannubi Einaudi 2020 (750ML)

96 Points, Kerin O'Keefe, KerinOKeefe.com: "The 2020 Cannubi from Poderi Luigi Einaudi is gorgeous, starting with its fragrance of pressed rose, new leather, dark spice and forest berry. Intense, smooth and beautifully balanced, the elegantly structured palate features succulent strawberry, spiced cherry, blood orange and star anise before a truffle finish. Taut, fine-grained tannins provide polished support. Drink 2027–2035." 02/24

95 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The Poderi Luigi Einaudi 2020 Barolo Cannubi has a delicate and fine approach with redcurrant, fine fruit, blue flower, crushed stone and crushed curry leaf. There is a savory hint of dried tobacco leaf as well. The Cannubi is fine and finessed throughout, although you do get some of the character of the hot vintage with a tiny splash of extra concentration or thickness. Production is 12,673 bottles." 04/24

94 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous: "The 2020 Barolo Cannubi is a young, promising wine. It shows terrific depth in the understated style of the year. Crushed flowers, cedar, tobacco, licorice and dried herbs fill out the layers effortlessly. Pliant and expressive, the Cannubi is super-classy, not to mention a pleasure to taste. (Drink between 2025-2035)" 01/24

93 Points, Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck.com: "Taking a deeper shade of ruby red, the 2020 Barolo Cannubi is expressive on the nose, with ripe red cherries, a hint of cola spice, pressed roses, and fresh rosemary. Medium-bodied, it has very nice, even balance on the palate, with refined tannins and even acidity leading into a savory and earthy finish. It’s very nicely detailed and will do well over the next 12-15 years. (Drink between 2024-2029)" 05/24

94 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "This is racy and fresh with dried strawberries, dark cherries, cocoa and light spices adding a dusty, earthy note to it. Medium- to full-bodied, broad and structured with taut, polished tannins. Yet it’s agile and fleshy with ripe red fruit and subtle chocolate undertones at the end. Long finish. Try after 2027." 01/24
