"Transparent garnet verging on ruby. Very round and satisfying with true maritime Sangiovese character coming out. Gentle yet very obviously varietal. Tangy, dry finish with lovely, soft, appetising fruit on the way there. Long and really as luscious as Sangiovese gets." 17 Points, Jancis Robinson "This is really crunchy and juicy, with plums, sliced peaches and some fresh basil and...

"Dark aromas of graphite, potpourri, smoke, bergamot and dried cherries. Firm tannins on the palate, with a full body, a dusty texture, refreshing acidity and a powerful finish. Extracted, meaty, concentrated and balanced for the long haul, with an amazing minty aftertaste. Try from 2027." 97 Points, James Suckling "My top pick from this estate in 2021, the Villero bottling...

"Claudio’s 40 year old vines have yielded a fragrant, pretty Cannubi with precise notes of dried red berry fruit, wild raspberry, cherry, balsamico, and a hint of sweet spice and mint. Lovely." Armit Wines

"The 2020 Barolo Cannubi is a sensual, elegant wine. Sweet dried red cherry, tobacco, incense, leather and dried herbs grace this gentle, caressing Barolo. All the elements are nicely balanced. Best of all, the 2020 will drink well right out of the gate."93 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous

"A fine and pretty Barolo with plenty of strawberry and mushroom character. White truffle, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied and creamy with medium, round tannins. Delicious now and will improve nicely." 94, James Suckling

This deliciously rich and luxurious red exhibits the true character of the Nebbiolo grape. Concentrated aromas of red cherry, sweet spice and aromatic rose petal. The palate is intense and punchy with notes of tobacco, dark fruit and a subtle earthy note. The finish is super smooth with velvety tannins.

"The 2017 Barolo Pira is a powerful, intensely savory wine. Dark cherry, herbs, leather incense and licorice all add to an impression. The Pira Barolo is one of the most reticent wines in this entire collection. It is hard to read today, despite its obvious weight and character. " 93, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
