This red is rich, yet densely woven, forming the backdrop for cherry, wild strawberry, earth, mineral and wild herb flavors. Balanced, even graceful, with fine intensity and a persistent aftertaste of fruit, mineral and herbs. Best from 2026 through 2045. 500 cases made, 250 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

With its colorful fantasy label, the Domenico Clerico 2019 Barolo Aeroplan Servaj shows dark fruit and a velvety texture with rusty nail and pencil shaving. This vintage carries more overall concentration and structure, and the results are both rich and extremely beautiful. Fruit comes from vines planted in 1994. The wine ages in large oak casks mostly, with about 10% in barrique. Production is 6,000 bottles and 100 magnums.

Showing nice softness and ample fruit weight, the 2018 Barolo Aeroplan Servaj is a bold and contemporary expression of Nebbiolo with dark fruit, cured tobacco, candied orange peel, rusty nail and ferrous earth. Fruit is sourced from the Baudana MGA in Serralunga d'Alba with vines planted in 1994. The tannins are plush and rich, and this beautiful collectors' bottle awards you with multilayered complexity and depth.

A broad, spicy style, this delivers cherry, plum, earth and vanilla flavors against a backdrop of light, dusty tannins. Tightly wound and a touch rustic, it's also long. Best from 2023 through 2037. 500 cases made, 250 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

This celebrated wine is released in one tranche of 100 magnums and another of 5,500 bottles with several different label designs, one featuring a hot air balloon and another with a more psychedelic label. The 2017 Barolo Aeroplan Servaj offers rich concentration and a robust center of gravity that is indicative of Serralunga d'Alba, the village where this fruit is cultivated. This is always one of my favorite wines in the Clerico portfolio. This vintage reveals extra power and elegance that pull in both directions, but it is what ultimately gives this wine harmony. This bottle will definitely require patience and more cellaring.
