Questions about Barolo 'Cannubi', Altare 2021
- What makes Elio Altare Cannubi a Barolo?
- Elio Altare Cannubi is Barolo because it is made from Nebbiolo grown in the Barolo appellation of Piedmont. Cannubi is one of Barolo’s historic hillside sites, valued for wines that can combine perfume, tannin, and length.
- What grape is in Elio Altare Cannubi Barolo 2021?
- This 2021 Barolo is made from Nebbiolo, the only grape permitted for Barolo. Nebbiolo typically brings rose, red-cherry, tar, and firm tannin notes, with acidity that helps the wine develop over time.
- Should I decant Elio Altare Cannubi Barolo 2021?
- Yes, decant this young 2021 Nebbiolo for one to two hours if drinking it now. Air can soften the initial tightness of Barolo and better show the perfume of Cannubi, while a large Burgundy-shaped glass helps as well.
