Barolo, Cerequio, 2021

Bright but smooth with a fine tannic grip, this is a fabulous all-rounder that displays great class with its vivid red cherry and forest berry freshness, unctuous kirsch and ripe sloe flavours, and underlying salt and mineral components, finishing on very pretty wild strawberry characteristics. Along with Brunate, one of the great La Morra single vineyards, due south-facing but at a slightly lower altitude, similar to Rocche.
