"The Elio Altare 2020 Barolo Cannubi takes a modernist approach to the MGA with some oak spice, tar and licorice that surrounds firm, crisp cherry and red fruit. There is a combination of fruit and oak spice that gives this wine staying power, texture and lift and then folds over the palate with richness and pretty volume. It ages in barrique for 24 months with 20% new oak. A mere 1,400 bottles were created."
