2013 Barolo Cerequio
Buying options
Tasting notes
The 2013 Barolo Cerequio is soft, delicate and understated, with a creamy expression of fruit, silky tannins and exceptional overall balance. Sweet floral notes, bright red stone fruits, mint and cinnnamon give the wine its aromatic lift and presence. The only thing the 2013 is missing is the fruit intensity and exuberance of the very best years. Today, the Cerequio comes across as not fully formed and still recovering from its bottling about two months before this tasting. It will be interesting to see if more vineyard signatures develop over time. Feb 2017, www.vinous.com, Drink: 2019-2033

A Barolo with a solid core of ripe fruit, citrus undertones and cedar. Full body, chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Tangy and vivid. Still tight at this stage. Try in 2020. Jul 2017, www.jamessuckling.com
