"Spices, red cherries, new leather and tobacco all waft from the glass in the 2009 Barolo Cannubi. The most aromatically expressive of the 2009 Barolos I tasted, the Cannubi is sensual, layered and generous. The signatures of both the site and house style come through in an ample, broad Barolo with tons of near and medium term appeal. This is one of the best Barolos I have tasted from Damilano in some time. If this is the direction the estate is headed in, the future looks bright."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
The 'King of Wines,' a powerful, tannic and perfumed Nebbiolo from Piedmont's Langhe hills, celebrated for tar-and-roses aromatics and extraordinary aging potential.
Produces pale but powerfully tannic and perfumed reds with tar, rose and cherry notes. The grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco, it is among the most age-worthy in the world.
