The 2012 Barolo Cerequio offers praiseworthy elegance that is made more evident thanks to the wine's solid structure. Polished aromas of wild berry, anise seed, dried ginger, tar and licorice combine to give the wine a lasting sense of aromatic lift and buoyancy. The mouthfeel follows with a tight and streamlined approach. Boroli has achieved beautiful results in the Cerequio cru, despite a vintage that saw sporadic hail storms and difficult summer heat spikes.

This exciting Barolo, from various vineyards in Castiglione Falletto, bursts from the glass with pristine aromas of ripe cherries, fresh wildflowers and sweet spices. The generous palate showcases mixed red berries with hints of rosewood and nutmeg finishing with supple tannins that make it enjoyable in its youth.
