James Suckling (97)- "Deep and restrained with sleek elegance. Aromatic sweet violets are infused with orange zest, red currants and strawberries, slightly waxy and savory. The dense, full-bodied palate is crisp and firm yet velvety, showing subtle, concentrated fruit. Fresh and long with a thick finish, a bit sanguine and salty. Drinkable upon spring release."
Vinous (91)- "The 2022 Barolo Cannubi is a very pleasant, soft wine. Juicy red cherry/plum fruit, spice, blood orange and cedar are pushed forward. This mid-weight Barolo does not show most of the signs of a brutally warm and dry year—there is lovely freshness here. At the same time, the 2022 is a bit light, especially in the mid-palate, suggesting full phenolic ripeness was not reached. It's a wine that highlights the paradox of so many wines in this vintage because of its freshness but lighter structure vis-à-vis most years."
James Suckling (98)- "Aromas of red fruit, dried herbs, cola, earth and a touch of licorice. Medium- to full-bodied with chewy but not overbearing tannins, neat fruit flavors and a subtly chewy finish. A very absorbing wine. Already approachable, but it will improve with a year of cellaring. Best from 2026."
