Luciano Sandrone, Barolo Cannubi Boschis, 1996
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.
