The 2018 Barolo Cerequiois a new wine in this range.Soaring aromatics andbright, red-toned fruit givethe Cerequio its eff usivepersonality. Nuanced anddeep, with tremendouscomplexity and tons ofcharacter, the Cerequio isdazzling. This is everythinga great Barolo fromCerequio should be. Inother words: textbook.More over, it's one of thebest wines of this veryuneven vintage. -- Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
Here's an exciting new submission from Vietti. The 2018 Barolo Cerequio is lovely, sporting a broad and enriched bouquet that paints a panoramic vision of this MGA that straddles the villages of La Morra and Barolo. Despite that wide vision, this wine also excels at showing pinpoint details of wild cherry, crushed stone and black licorice. Cerequio is a wine of latitude and depth. Tight tannins help to stitch it together into a comprehensive whole. Only 4,925 bottles were made in this inaugural release. Congratulations. - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate
