Michele Chiarlo Barolo Cerequio 2018

Michele Chiarlo was founded in 1956 by the sole and present owners, Michele and Giuseppina Chiarlo. From a family of wine growers for over seven generations, Mr. Chiarlo is today one of the most respected producers of the fine wines of Piedmont and a leading figure in its viticultural industry. The family calls themselves traditional, because they have always aimed to promote the great terroirs of Langhe and Monferrato, using only indigenous grape varieties, Nebbiolo, Barbera, Cortese and Moscato grown exclusively in the hills, which are the authentic expression and symbol of this land and the ancient wine culture of these places. They are also traditional in producing 100% estate bottled wines. Traditional again, because they only vinify wines in purity, without blending grape types, searching to capture the character, the expression of personality, the goût de terroir. And finally traditional, because they are a family. For four generations at the Michele Chiarlo estate, they have lived the world of wine as a passion and destiny: a suitcase of experiences which, passed down from father to son, today translates into a wealth of living and active knowledge, ready to understand and confront future challenges.   

This glorious Barolo from the Cerequio vineyard has a ruby and garnet red color with brilliant hues. Complex, great character with notes of mature fruits, mint, eucalyptus and fine spices. A rich palate in structure with a tight weave of fine tannins, standing out for its elegance and harmony which highlights this famous Barolo cru.
