WA: 92 Drink Date: 2010 - 2015
The 2003 Barolo Cerequio opens with sweet, high-toned aromatics that lead to a feminine, super-ripe expression of small red fruit, minerals and toasted oak. Made in a taut, focused style, it needs a few years to come together, yet today it doesn't appear to be an especially long-lived wine. In most vintages, the Cerequio is Voerzio's most complete wine, but it seems to have suffered in 2003.
