1994 Barolo Cannubi

The 1994 Barolo Cannubi boasts a deep ruby/garnet color, as well as a fragrant bouquet of smoked herbs, sweet berry/cherry fruit, licorice, and spice box notes. Rich, concentrated, and layered, this medium to full-bodied, pure, lush, silky smooth Barolo is ideal for drinking now and over the next 3-4 years. Scavino's splendid 1993s have been followed by strong efforts in the more difficult vintage of 1994. I cannot wait to travel to Piedmont in late October to taste his 1995s, 1996s, and 1997s!
