"A deep garnet with brilliant highlights, the wine shows ample black currant, apricot, cherry, mint, and spice on the nose. The aromas are confirmed on the palate in a rich, full body with healthy tannins and a lingering finish." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"The 2013 Barolo Cerequio is a wine of deep, underlying power, grit and determination. The wine opens to black fruit and earthy overtones with sticky tar, licorice and crushed river stone. Surprisingly, the primary fruit is not a protagonist. Instead, the wine offers a smoky and evolved personality that comes as a pleasant surprise. You can taste the youth of the wine, however, on the palate. The nervous tannins need time to integrate and soften." —Wine Advocate "There's a warmth and softness to this wine that's so enjoyable. Full body, soft and velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. Lots of berry and walnut character." —James Suckling |
