Clear, pale ruby to garnet in color; on the nose, it's clean with medium intensity primary aromas of raspberries, cherries, and roses; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, high tannins, medium alcohol, full body and pronounced primary flavors of cherry syrup, strawberries, and clay pots with a long finish. This wine is balanced and complex. Overall, I rate this wine as very good. — 7 months ago

Great nose and mouthfeel although the tannins were took time to soften. Decanted for a half hour before drinking. — 8 months ago
Ruby in color with a wide brick rim.
Fruity nose with red fruits, flowers, metals, light earth and herbs.
Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with raspberries, fresh picked cherries, vegetables, light wood, spices, coffee and peppercorn.
Spicy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty, yet young, Barolo from the famous Cannubi plot in Barolo. Light and airy. Elegant, and feels very big.
Not very approachable yet, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Showing great potential to age nicely in the 10 years, and beyond.
100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged in large oak barrels for 32 months. A limited Production.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

Located halfway up the hill dominating the principal valley of Barolo, supported by steep slopes lined by orderly vineyards, lies the 15th century Abbey of Annunziata. Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe berry fruits and pepper spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and strawberry, lively spice, well balanced with savory fine tannins on a medium+ finish ending with mineral character. — 2 months ago
Delicious. Smokey raspberry, medium bodied, dry finish, leathery with a whiff of pepper. Buy buy buy again! — 4 months ago
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. No formal notes due to the setting but yeah, this was pretty special from the beginning. I have long been a fan of Renato Ratti’s “Marscenasco” however Conca, the MGA for which they are most proud of, has been more modern in recent history, spending some time in French barrique (for the record, I lean traditionalist). On top of that, many 2009 Barolo’s have come across overblown to my palate. Yet this was sublime. Proving, once again that there is always something to learn. The fruit was 2009 powerful but balanced with acid and freshness. There was plenty tar and roses and all the tannin one should expect from Conca. Fabulous stuff. Drink now through 2044. — 7 months ago

First time with Freisa. At 14.5 ABV it was a bit darker and heavier than I was expecting, based on what I've read about this grape. It was still a really good bottle, though, with flavors of red and black fruit, and some clove too. Would like to try this grape again from a different producer. 100% Freisa. 6/5/23. — 4 years ago

Red currants & goji berries, Sweet cedar & pine resin, ripe plums: drinking beautifully now though this has legs & curious how it will fare next year, plus with a decant. Drank pop n pour with much time in glass, as the heavens rained down once again on the east coast. — 3 days ago
