Vietti Cerequio, Barolo DOCG, Italy 2021

Vietti’s Cerequio 2021 is a spectacular Barolo from one of Piedmont’s most legendary crus. From the historic Cerequio MGA in the commune of Barolo, this 100% Nebbiolo is an extraordinary combination of perfume, power and finesse. Ripe cherry, strawberry and red plum mingle with rose petal, violet, balsamic herbs, spice and crushed earth, while the palate is beautifully concentrated and lifted by vibrant acidity and remarkably refined tannins. Aged for approximately 30 months in large oak, it has the depth, precision and structure to evolve beautifully for decades.
