Burlotto Barolo Cannubi 2015 DOCG 0.75l

The Burlotto Barolo Cannubi 2015 DOCG 0.75l tells a story of terroir, temperament, and winemaking culture that takes shape from a warm yet balanced harvest, capable of providing structure without sacrificing elegance. It comes from the best rows of the Cannubi cru, one of the iconic landmarks of the Langhe, where Nebbiolo and sunshine tell a new chapter in Piedmontese winemaking history every year. Here, Burlotto tradition meets a contemporary interpretation of quality, offering a Barolo destined to age in the bottle for decades and to surprise with its balance, precision, and aromatic depth. It's perfect for those seeking a wine that pairs well with complex dishes but also enhances a slow, thoughtful conversation. The history of Burlotto, a historic Langhe winery with roots in the heart of Verduno, is intertwined with a work philosophy that combines respect for the fruit, almost artisanal care in the cellar, and a constant pursuit of the authenticity of the terroir. It is a testament to how a small family can transform time into a wine of character, without constraint, and offer consumers a sensory narrative that transcends the bottle. In the cellar, the grape processing is guided by an approach that favors controlled fermentation and long maceration, to extract tannic finesse without losing the aromatic delicacy typical of Cannubi. The wine is then aged in traditional oak barrels, where it develops a silky texture that progresses progressively, preserving a well-balanced acidic vivacity that supports the progression of the flavors from the opening to the finish. The 2015 Cannubi stands out for its aromatic profile blending notes of ripe cherry, dried rose, licorice, and sweet spices with a subtle balsamic undertone. On the palate, it displays a creamy texture, a substantial yet not heavy structure, and a savory character that invites you to refill your glass. This makes it a significant addition to the Burlotto range, where each vintage expresses a distinct evolution and a continuity of style that speaks of restrained elegance, sustainable pleasure, and sustained longevity. It's an ideal choice to pair with rich meats, fine mushrooms, and Piedmontese dishes, while also offering food for thought on the value of controlled maturation. The finish is resolute yet full of promise, in keeping with a vision of understated and enduring excellence that characterizes the entire Burlotto winemaking portfolio in the Barolo landscape, where Cannubi remains a beacon, a meeting of terroir and craftsmanship, memory and innovation, present and future.
