Francesco Rinaldi e Figli – Barolo Cannubi – 2011

One of those wineries that best represents the territory of Langa, born in 1870, they put on the market the first bottle of Barolo in 1906!
It is fantastic to enter their winery which is located on the famous Cannubi hill and still breathe that ancient scent, here they use only big casks, as Piedmontese tradition requires, fermentations are long and wines are never bottled before August.
They own vineyards in the communes of La Morra, Barolo and Castiglione Falletto where there are very different soils and the winery is able to produce wines which represent the best of the territory.
Their Barolo Cannubi is a super old school wine. It comes from the homonymous cru, the most renowned of the whole Barolo area, so much to be mentioned on the label since 1700. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in large oak barrels for this fine wine. 2011, a vintage that we can define as fantastic for its promptness and immediate pleasantness, if you do not have the patience to wait much longer to drink your Barolo this is the vintage for you!
