Giovanni Canonica's Barolo Grinzane Cavour 2016 DOCG is a rare and deeply distinctive wine, the fruit of a small plot in the eponymous municipality, managed with artisanal care by one of the Langhe's most reserved and authentic producers. The 2016 vintage, considered among the best of the decade, yielded Nebbiolo grapes of extraordinary finesse and concentration, which Canonica vinified with indigenous yeasts and aged in cement, fiberglass, and large 20hl barrels, without any corrective measures. The result is a sincere, powerful, and vibrant Barolo, with notes of ripe red fruit, underbrush, spice, and leather, supported by dense tannins and a captivating rustic elegance. With a very limited production, the Grinzane Cavour 2016 is a collector's item, coveted by enthusiasts for its ability to express the terroir without filters.
