"The 2007 Barolo Riserva Cerequio is a beautiful wine that delivers on the potential of this single vineyard cru and the Nebbiolo grape. The overall effect shows grace and poise. Past vintages have been criticized for too much oak, but I found that extra spice intensity to be well integrated within the thicker texture and concentration of this wine (especially in this generous and fruit-forward vintage)."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
The 'King of Wines,' a powerful, tannic and perfumed Nebbiolo from Piedmont's Langhe hills, celebrated for tar-and-roses aromatics and extraordinary aging potential.
Produces pale but powerfully tannic and perfumed reds with tar, rose and cherry notes. The grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco, it is among the most age-worthy in the world.
