The Poderi Luigi Einaudi 2022 Barolo Cannubi captures the effortless elegance and structure that have made this historic vineyard one of the most celebrated sites in Barolo. Pressed violet, lilac, small berry fruit, white pepper and licorice unfold across a remarkably expressive bouquet. The palate is refined and beautifully balanced, with tannins so fine they seem almost invisible, yet they provide ample structure and persistence. Sourced from a 2.3-hectare parcel at 220 meters above sea level, where clay, sand and limestone combine to create Cannubi’s distinctive character, the wine is fermented in cement and aged in tonneaux and botte grande. Production is 12,358 bottles plus larger formats.
The Nebbiolo grape varietal is widely understood to be the fruit responsible for Italy's finest aged wines. However, its popularity and reliability as a grape which gives out outstanding flavors and aromas has led it to be planted in many countries around the world, with much success. These purple grapes are distinguishable by the fact that they take on a milky dust as they begin to reach maturity, leading many to claim that this is the reason for their unusual name, which means 'fog' in Italian. Nebbiolo grapes produce wines which have a wide range of beautiful and fascinating flavors, the most common of which are rich, dark and complex, such as violet, truffle, tobacco and prunes. They are generally aged for many years to balance out their characteristics, as their natural tannin levels tend to be very high.
Country
Italy
There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.
Region
Piedmont
Situated in the north-western part of Italy, the region of Piedmont is known worldwide and is highly respected for the quality of the wines produced there. Many of the most successful sub-regions in Piedmont produce many of the world's finest red wines, such as those made from the excellent Nebbiolo grape varietal in areas such as Barolo and Barbaresco. However, the historic wineries which typify this region use a relatively wide variety of grapes, including Dolcetto and Barbera for their red wines, which are typically aged and have a delightful velvety character. Piedmont isn't all about beautifully complex red wines, though, as it is also famed for high quality, elegant sparkling wines, notably the Asti wines made with the white Moscato grape. The region benefits from a range of terroirs which are often well expressed in the sparkling wines, and a wonderfully consistent climate ideal for vineyard cultivation.
Appellation
Barolo
Barolo’s star grape is Nebbiolo, a finicky yet expressive variety that reaches its zenith this unique terroir. The region’s distinct microclimates and soils contribute to Nebbiolo’s complexity, resulting in wines with robust tannins, high acidity, and exceptional aging potential. Barolo wines, often referred to as “the king of wines,” are characterized by their deep garnet hue and complex bouquet, offering aromas of roses, tar, truffles, and red fruit. The aging process is significant, requiring at least 38 months, with a minimum of 18 months spent in wooden casks. This meticulous craftsmanship results in wines that evolve beautifully over time, displaying a harmonious balance of power and finesse. For wine enthusiasts, exploring Barolo provides a captivating journey into the rich tapestry of Italian winemaking, showcasing the profound marriage of tradition, terroir, and Nebbiolo’s distinctive expression.

This complex red builds slowly, its strawberry, cherry, rose, green tea and menthol aromas and flavors nicely integrated with the firm, dense structure. The menthol continues through the sinewy finish, where cola and dried rose petal accents emerge. Best from 2030 through 2047.

The 2022 Barolo Cannubi is aromatic, silky and super expressive. Sweet floral notes meld into a core of macerated cherry, mint, spice, sweet pipe tobacco and cedar. A delicate, refined wine, the 2022 is positively stellar from start to finish. Time in the glass brings out its volume and textural presence.

Cherries and strawberries with jasmine and a touch of orange rind. The medium-bodied, open palate shows welcoming red fruit—accessible but not excessive—supported by focused, well-integrated tannins. Already pleasant. Drink or hold.

A pale ruby hue, the 2022 Barolo Cannubi is refined and somewhat reserved at this stage. Aromas of cranberries, dusty earth, potpourri, and savory orange citrus emerge from the glass. Medium-bodied, it offers gentle tension with fine tannins and a graceful taper through the finish. Drink 2026-2036. 12,358 bottles were produced.
