Note di degustazione
(90% nebbiolo and 10% barbera; aged in 90% new barriques Good deep red-ruby. Captivating aromas of raspberry, wild rose, tobacco and nutty, vanillin oak. Quite sweet for this wine at Clerico but with lovely vinosity and flavor intensity. Bigger than usual for Arte but still essentially a medium-bodied blend. Finishes with powerful but sweet tannins.

The 2007 Arte (90% Nebbiolo, 10% Barbera) is a dark, sumptuous beauty endowed with layers of blackberries, sweet spices, minerals. Though still rather firm, the wine possesses superb balance and long, impeccable finish. Espresso, menthol, licorice and leather add complexity on the close.

Though still rather firm, the wine possesses superb balance and a long, impeccable finish. Espresso, menthol, licorice and leather add complexity on the close. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2022. My recent visit with Domenico Clerico was illuminating, as we tasted through nearly every wine in the cellar. It’s great to see Clerico back in action as he battles through a serious illness. Clerico remains one of Piedmont’s most gregarious and generous producers. The cellar door is always open here; early in the morning, late at night, weekends, and pretty much anytime he and his crew aren’t in their impeccably cared for vineyards. I know I am not alone in wishing Clerico a speedy and full recovery. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including: de Grazia Imports; tel.
