Brezza Barolo 'Cannubi' 2012

"The 2009 Barolo Cannubi shows delicate highlights of wild berries, cassis, herbs, blue flower, licorice and dried ginger held together in a tight embrace. As you would expect from this vineyard cru, the Cannubi is the most delicate and feminine of this threesome. The long-term perspectives are good, although the medium build suggests the wine might evolve faster. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2023. "
92 Point Wine Advocate
"After careful manual harvesting the grapes are brought to the cellars in perforated plastic bins. After crushing and de-stemming, they undergo a floating cap fermentation at 26oC with frequent daily pump-overs. The wine is then given a 4-6 day submerged-cap maceration with a daily pump-over. After an extended 10-12-day maceration the wine is taken off the skins and racked often for the first few weeks. It is then kept at a constant temperature to induce malolactic fermentation. Once the malolactic is complete, the wine is matured for one year in Slovenian oak 20-25 hl botti. The wine is then bottled and remains in the cellar for 6 months for further ageing, and then released." Winemaker's Notes
