DAMILANO
Established in 1890, Damilano is managed by Paolo, Mario and Guido Damilano, fourth generation of the family and the largest landowners in the prized Barolo cru, Cannubi. The Damilanos also have access to crus Liste, Cerequio and Brunate. Their style has changed somewhat over the last 10 years with the adoption of external techniques, including the use of barriques; though having the good sense to understand that Nebbiolo can lose its charm with too much new oak, they did return to the older, large French oak. The jewel in their crown, the stunning Cannubi 1752 Riserva, will be on our shelves further down the track.
