That's the stuff! Mature, cigar, cedar and black cherry. Fine, fibrous tannins with chewiness and grain that is classic for Barolo, and showing a great balance of youthfulness and development. (RH)

Bright black cherry fruit with wonderful clarity and that classic tarry savoury character as well as bold, powerful tannins. A true classic, and still a long way from its peak. (RH)
The 2012 Barolo Cerequio is arguably the most complete of these wines, as it brings together aromatic complexity, dense fruit and fabulous balance. All the elements flesh out in a rich, sumptuous Barolo endowed with real power and depth, yet there is plenty of the nuance that distinguishes Cerequio. There are a number of terrific wines in this lineup, but the Cerequio is the wine that seems to be the most dialed in today. With time in the glass, the intensity of both fruit and tannin simply continues to blossom.
Bright mid ruby with narrow orange rim. A rather locked nose reluctant to show much. Balanced, elegant palate weight, yet with plenty of tannic power. Fine fruit and long, but the tannins certainly need further ageing. Finely balanced but no ready by far. (WS)
