"The 2019 Barolo Cerequio is a worthy follow up to the stellar 2018. Aromatic and deeply pitched, the 2019 races across the palate with remarkable depth and intensity. Crushed red berry fruit, rose petal, mint and cinnamon all open in the glass, but it is the wine's silkiness and suppleness that impresses most. A kick of acids and tannins puts an exclamation point on the finish. This is a gorgeous Cerequio that takes all the finesse this site offers, and then turns up the volume. What a wine."
Jeb Dunnuck, 94 Points
"Coming from La Morra, a more fruit-forward tone can be found in the licorice spice and depth of the 2019 Barolo Cerequio, which offers slightly darker fruit, ripe berries, and peppercorn. This was the second vintage produced and is more approachable now for the vintage. It is a joyful wine though it still has ripe structure."
Wine Spectator, 94 Points
"There's a ripe element of boysenberry or pomegranate lending this Barolo a slightly exotic character. Hibiscus, eucalyptus and tobacco notes also prevail as this firms up on the fresh, chalky finish. Best from 2027 through 2046."
