2007 Barolo "Cerequio"

Voerzio's 2007 Barolo Cerequio is a wonderful counter to the virile, imposing Brunate. Sweet red fruit, flowers and menthol are woven into a nuanced, textured fabric of notable class and elegance. The Cerequio possesses dazzling inner perfume, silky tannins and phenomenal length. It is a stunning, beautifully articulated Barolo blessed with tons of intensity and compelling overall balance. A final burst of red berries informs the long, explosive, perfumed finish.

Loads of dark fruits with plums and berries and dark chocolate. Full and very intense, with a velvety texture and loads of flavors. Round and polished tannins. Dense and chewy. Fleshy, grows on you. Best after 2015. (05/2011)

Fresh, elegant and airy, despite its firm structure, this red offers black cherry and licorice flavors, with a hint of tar. Juicy and lively, with fine balance and a licorice-accented aftertaste. Quintessential La Morra, showing fine harmony. Best from 2015 through 2033. 340 cases made.
