Description
Barolo Cerequio DOCG vertical signed by Michele Chiarlo
The Michele Chiarlo Cassetta Ambassador Verticale CEREQUIO DOCG 6 Bottles + 1 Magnum is an exclusive offer for those who wish to explore the evolution of one of the most prestigious crus of Barolo. The wooden box brings together different vintages of Barolo Cerequio, offering a fascinating tasting journey through aromatic nuances, structure, and expressive maturity. It is a selection designed for enthusiasts, collectors, and for those seeking a prestigious gift in the world of Italian wine.
Territory and wine style
The wine is born in the municipality of La Morra, within the Barolo DOCG area, from Nebbiolo grapes cultivated in a 0.9-hectare vineyard facing southwest, at 350 meters above sea level. The soil, composed of clayey limestone marls of marine origin, contributes to giving balance, depth, and finesse to the wine's profile. Manual harvesting and the position of the cru help define an elegant, territorial, and long-lived style, where power and harmony coexist with great naturalness.
Tasting notes
In the glass, Barolo Cerequio presents itself with a bright garnet color, enriched by slight orange reflections, typical of a great mature Nebbiolo. The olfactory profile is complex and intense, with balsamic notes, hints of violet, small black fruits, truffle, and very fine spices. On the palate, the entry is rich and decisive, but supported by an elegant texture: the tannins are silky and enveloping, the freshness keeps the sip lively and precise, while the final persistence is broad and harmonious.
Recommended pairings
This vertical of Barolo Cerequio DOCG shines with structured and flavorful dishes. It is ideal with braised meats, important roasts, game, cuts of red meat with long cooking times, and preparations with mushrooms or truffles. It also pairs very well with aged cheeses and traditional Piedmontese dishes with a strong character, capable of dialoguing with the complexity of Nebbiolo.
Serving temperature
To best appreciate Barolo Cerequio, the ideal serving temperature is 18°C. In the presence of younger vintages, it may be helpful to open the bottles a little in advance, to encourage oxygenation and highlight the more complex bouquet and the more harmonious tannic structure.
Why buy it
This vertical box represents a choice of great value for those seeking a complete and refined tasting experience. It allows one to observe the evolution of a single cru through different vintages, maximizing the work of Michele Chiarlo and the identity of the Barolo territory. It is an ideal purchase for an important cellar, for a special occasion, or to gift a wine capable of uniting prestige, depth, and strong personality.
