The wine that made Sandrone famous, now with nearly three decades of age on it. Cannubi Boschis (renamed Aleste from the 2013 vintage) is the family's single icon cru, the only vineyard Luciano chose to bottle on its own every year since 1985, a move that helped bring the modern idea of the Barolo cru to the Langhe. The 1996 comes from a classic, structured, slow-to-evolve vintage, exactly the kind of year built to reward patience like this. This is a mature bottle from a private collection, drinking in its tertiary phase, so decant and treat it gently. A chance to taste the wine that rewrote the rules at full maturity.

"Readers will find much to admire in Luciano Sandrone's 1996 Barolo Cannubi Boschis. More than anything else, the 1996 surprises by how sensual and open-knit it is, particularly within the context of the year. Silky, nuanced and super-expressive, the 1996 is a real joy to taste and drink today. Hints of smoke, licorice and tobacco lead into a core of dark red and purplish stone fruits. In 1996, Cannubi Boschis is a Barolo of pure grace and class." —Antonio Galloni

"The spectacular 1996 Barolo Cannubi Boschis offers aromas of cassis, cherry liqueur, and flowers. It is dense, superb, full-bodied, with fabulous intensity as well as layers of extract. Muscular, concentrated, broad, and powerful, it demands 5-6 years of cellaring." —Robert M. Parker, Jr.

"Wonderful aromas of freshly cut roses, with blackberry, strawberry and cream. Medium- to full-bodied, with fine tannins, good acidity and a fresh, fruity finish. Excellent now, but will improve with age."
