Rinaldi’s 2020 Barolo Cannubi marries power and finesse to a degree that is quite rare. There’s plenty of baby fat today, so I would be thinking of cellaring this for a bit. Macerated red cherry, kirsch, sweet spice, tobacco, leather, blood orange and rose petal form a super-classic profile. This is a distinctive Cannubi that is endowed with both substance and textural depth to burn.

This wine shows an especially minty character. The Francesco Rinaldi & Figli 2020 Barolo Cannubi has a bright profile of dark and purple fruits with a sweet finish. But those minty and spicy aromas make the difference. The alcohol content is just a hair below the other wines in this portfolio at 14.5%.

Like a freshly baked raspberry pie cooling on a windowsill, this Barolo immediately grabs your attention with its intense and fruit-forward nose. The scent is plush and inviting, On the palate, the wine evokes the essence of a gourmet cranberry sauce, with its vibrant and slightly tart character beautifully complemented by sweet spices and a mesmerizing touch of incense highlighted by striking floral notes. All of this is wrapped around classic Nebbiolo structure that is both firm and elegant. Drink now through 2040.

This is aromatic, with fresh cherries, red plums, dried flowers, grapefruit peel and hints of spiced blood oranges. Medium-bodied, refined and nicely formed on the palate, with a broad tannin structure and impressive length. Tense and persistent. Better from 2028.
