Il Burlotto 2018 Barolo DOCG Cannubi is a true gem that embodies the essence of Piedmontese winemaking tradition. Hailing from the renowned Cannubi cru, this red wine is a profound expression of the terroir, with an alcohol content of 14.5%. The Nebbiolo grapes, hand-harvested from the finest vineyards, are treated with the utmost respect in the winery, following a vinification process that preserves the authenticity of the fruit.
Upon opening, the nose is immediately enveloped by an enchanting bouquet, where notes of dried roses, ripe berries, and a subtle hint of tar intertwine. As it spends time in the glass, notes of oriental spices, leather, and tobacco emerge, creating an aromatic complexity that tells stories of distant lands and centuries-old traditions.
On the palate, the Barolo Cannubi 2018 reveals itself to be powerful and structured, with elegant tannins that dance alongside a surprising freshness. The long, lingering finish offers a delicate evocation of ripe cherries and a mineral trail, a testament to its unique terroir. Perfect paired with rich dishes such as Barolo-braised beef or porcini mushroom risotto, this wine invites moments of conviviality, making each sip a memorable experience. A Barolo that not only delights but also tells a story of passion, dedication, and love for the land.
