Tasting Notes
The 2018 Barolo Cerequio is a new wine in this range. Soaring aromatics and bright, red-toned fruit give the Cerequio its effusive personality. Nuanced and deep, with tremendous complexity and tons of character, the Cerequio is dazzling. This is everything a great Barolo from Cerequio should be. In other words: textbook. More over, it's one of the best wines of this very uneven vintage. 97 Points, Drink 2028 - 2048. - Antonio Galloni
Arguably Italy’s most important fine wine region, Piedmont is synonymous with Nebbiolo, Barolo, and Barbaresco. It’s also home to a wide array of other compelling reds and whites that range from the austere to the juicy and joyful.
LOCATION:
Northwest Italy, bordering France and Switzerland, with the Alps to the north and the Apennines to the south.
TERROIR:
Rolling hills and foggy mornings define Langhe and Roero. Soils are mostly calcareous marl with sandy or clay-rich layers depending on the site. Continental climate with cold winters and warm summers.
VARIETIES:
Nebbiolo is king, producing powerful, tannic reds. Barbera and Dolcetto round out the red trio. For whites, look to Arneis, Cortese (Gavi), and Timorasso. Moscato is important in the Asti area.
