Luciano Sandrone, Barolo Cannubi Boschis, 1997
The wine that made Sandrone famous, now drinking from a riper, more generous vintage. Cannubi Boschis (later renamed Aleste) is the single cru Luciano picked out to bottle on its own every year from 1985, a choice that helped popularize the modern Barolo cru. The 1997 was a warm, opulent year across Piedmont, so this leans plusher and more open than the structured 1996 alongside it. It's a mature bottle from a private collection, well into its tertiary phase, and ready to enjoy now with a careful decant. A softer, more flattering window into one of Barolo's great modern crus.
