Giuseppe Rinaldi Barolo Cannubi San Lorenzo Ravera 2007 is a full-bodied red wine produced from Nebbiolo grapes in the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, northern Italy. Beppe Rinaldi was one of the most revered winemakers in the Langhe, whose wines are highly sought-after among Barolo aficionados. Until his death in 2018, he produced wines that were among the most traditional in Barolo, with long maceration times and patient maturation in old Slavonian oak casks. There are wines that take along time to open up and mature, but that emphatically reward patience. This 2007 bottling uses grapes from two key vineyards. 70% Ravera and 30% Cannubi San Lorenzo. It is aged for 36 months in oak barrels followed by a further six months in bottle. "The wood initially lends a dill and sawdust quality to the cherry fruit. With air, this reveals greater purity to its strawberry and raspberry flavours. Very elegant, resonating on the long, red berry and mineral aftertaste. Ethereal and old-school." Wine Spectator, 2012

The 2007 Barolo Cannubi/S.Lorenzo-Ravera emerges from the glass with sweet dark cherries, crushed flowers, menthol and spices. It is pure seduction, with effortless layers of fruit that blossom beautifully on the mid-palate and finish. I especially like the radiance and depth of the fruit. The Cannubi/S.Lorenzo-Ravera is a touch more marked by the vintage than the Brunate-Le Coste. Still, it is a striking Barolo from Giuseppe Rinaldi that won’t need too long in the cellar to offer its finest drinking. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027.

Giuseppe Rinaldi is the standard bearer for the traditional school of Barolo. Over the last few years Rinaldi’s wines have become more elegant, no doubt reflecting the increasing influence of Rinaldi’s daughter Marta. The 2007 Baroli are striking. They aren’t quite as profound as the 2006s, but that is perhaps asking too much. Readers who want to learn more about Rinaldi may want to check out my video on www.erobertparker.com.

Good medium red. Reticent nose shows a bit less fruit today than the Brunate-Le Coste; smells softer and broader. Then much more horizontal on the palate than the 2008 version, with a strong flavor of cherry liqueur but not quite the sweetness of the 2007 Brunate-Le Coste. Best today on the very long finish, but the serious tannins will require extended aging.Stephen Tanzer1st November 2011
