Note di degustazione
Voerzio's 1996 Barolo Cerequio is dark, unctuous and rich in texture, with plenty of black cherry, plum, smoke and licorice. The aromatics show a good bit of development, but there is more than enough depth for the 1996 to drink well for another handful of years or more. This is a decidedly powerful, virile vintage for the Cerequio. Much of that has to do with the more extracted style that was in vogue here in the mid 1990s.

The 1996 Barolo Cerequio is another big wine. Where Brunate often delivers muscle, Cerequio is all about finesse and elegance, qualities that are mostly lost because of the heavy oak treatment. Earthiness and tobacco dominate the flavor profile of this somewhat rustic Barolo.
The opaque ruby/purple-colored 1996 Barolo Cerequio possesses extremely high tannin and extract, but it is very backward, closed and firm. Full-bodied, powerful, and rich, but broodingly backward and stubborn, it possesses all the correct component parts, but patience will be required by potential purchasers. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2025. Importer: Viva Vino, Eddystone, PA; tel. (610) 872-1500
