The 2007 Barolo Cerequio is a big, dark wine loaded with fruit. Dark berries, flowers, French oak and licorice are some of the aromas and flavors that take shape in the glass. The Cerequio comes across as quite large in scale, with considerable richness, but less in the way of true vineyard character. It is one of the darkest and more virile wines I have ever tasted from this site. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022.
Damilano’s 2007s Baroli are big, massive wines that appear to need several years in bottle. They have plenty of underlying structure, and while ripe, they are also well balanced.
