with solid tannins adding shape and final grip

Here there is a similar mouth feel to the Bonnes Mares with a bit more muscle in evidence on the overtly powerful yet velvety and imposingly-scaled flavours that exude a subtle minerality on the slightly firmer and just as impressively persistent finale

Vietti Barolo Cerequio 2018 not on sale with solid tannins adding shapeThe 2018 Barolo Cerequio is a new wine in this range. Soaring aromatics and bright, red toned fruit give the Cerequio its effusive personality. Nuanced and deep, with tremendous complexity and tons of character, the Cerequio is dazzling. This is everything a great Barolo from Cerequio should be. In other words: textbook. More over, it's one of the best wines of this very uneven vintage. Antonio Galloni
