Thanks in part to the long aging in oak barrels in the Marchesi di Barolo cellars, this Cannubi Barolo is a unique piece of craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e A careful vinification for the Barolo Cannubi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The grapes are harvested by hand and then quickly transported to the cellar. Here, they are pressed and gently descaled to preserve only the finest aromas from the skins and outer part of the grape. Fermentation takes place in thermo-conditioned tanks at a controlled temperature. Skin maceration lasts ten days, with the fermenting juice regularly recycled from the bottom to the top of the tank to gently integrate the tannins and achieve the desired color. Once fermentation is complete, the grape's natural sugars are completely converted into alcohol. The wine is then racked in cement tanks lined with fiberglass and insulated with cork, where it rests at a post-fermentation temperature of approximately twenty-two degrees Celsius. This temperature triggers a natural process called malolactic fermentation, which transforms the harsh malic acid into a softer lactic acid, a process that takes approximately two months. The wine is aged for two years, partly in Slavonian oak barrels and partly in small, moderately toasted French oak barrels. Finally, the wine is blended in traditional large oak barrels and aged for another twelve months before being released. Barolo Cannubi reaches its full maturity six years after harvest and can be enjoyed for its entire lifespan, ranging from six to 25 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e What does the Barolo Cannubi Marchesi di Barolo taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e This wine is garnet red in color with ruby ​​reflections.

Most of the production was sold locally until 1964, when the ambitious and energetic Giacomo Fenocchio took over the estate. In his quest to produce the finest wines in all of Barolo, he purchased prime plots in Cannubi and nearby Castellero.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The success of Fenocchio\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nIn April 1989, Giacomo died, leaving all the farming and winemaking duties for the estate to his young son, Claudio. As Claudio explains, it was a challenging time for Barolo. Many producers tried to find a \"new way\" to make Barolo and enjoyed great commercial success; but Claudio never strayed from the path of tradition. He continued to produce his wines using the time-honored techniques of the classic style: organic farming, long fermentations on the skins, and aging only in large Slavonian oak barrels.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The vinification process of Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo Cannubi\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe Nebbiolo grapes come from the historic Cannubi cru in the Barolo region. The vineyards are situated on a hilly terrain approximately 280 meters above sea level. The soil is rich in marl, tuff, and sand, ensuring a consistently dry environment. The vines average 30 years of age. The grapes are harvested by hand in early October. After rigorous selection, a traditional long maceration follows: natural fermentation without added yeasts for up to 40 days in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for six months in stainless steel tanks and for 30 months in Slavonian oak barrels.\n\n\n\n The color is deep garnet red with ruby ​​reflections. The bouquet is rich in fruit and floral aromas, along with strong, warm spicy notes. An elegant and velvety wine, characterized by its fullness, balance, and renowned longevity. Gastronomy: The Barolo Cannubi pairs well with dishes featuring red meat, game, and aged cheeses.","brand":"Poot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775821615183,"sku":"12449","price":69.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/giacomo-fenocchio-barolo-cannubi_12449.webp?v=1770370422"}],"url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/collections\/appellatie-barolo-di-barolo-cannubi.oembed","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
