Note di degustazione
This was a very expensive year to make wine. The team at Domenico Clerico had to deal with three devastating hail storms and were forced to use helicopters (something that is no longer allowed today) for vineyard treatments. Happily, the 2014 Barolo seems to have moved past its difficult birth. Tasted today at this young stage in its evolution, the wine is steady and intense with lovely berry tones that rise delicately to the top. The mouthfeel is also richer and more complete than I expected. The blend is 90% Nebbiolo from Ginestra and 10% from Mosconi.

The 2014 Barolo is one of the most attractive wines I have tasted from Clerico in some time. Pliant, generous and inviting, it has quite a bit to offer. Succulent red cherry and plum fruit are pushed forward in this open-knit, sexy wine. The 2014 spent 16 months in barrique and a further 16 months in cask. It could turn out to be one of the surprises of this vintage.
