Domenico Clerico | Piemont

Duftig frisch und anschmiegsam, aromatische Fülle und reichlich Frucht. Ein herrlicher Dolcetto im tadellosen Stil des Domenico Clerico. (superiore.de)

"The 2011 Langhe Dolcetto Visadi is gorgeous in this vintage. Sweet, silky layers of fruit caress the palate in this expressive, nuanced wine. The 2011 is a little laid back but it is very pretty just the same, as the starting point with this fruit is of a very high level." Robert Parker

Rubinrot mit dem Duft von Sauerkirschen und Veilchen, im vollen und weichen Geschmack eine angenehm frische Säure, die den langen Trinkgenuss veredelt. (superiore.de)

"The 2010 Barbera d’Alba Trevigne is another attractive, juicy wine bursting with sweet red fruit, flowers, cloves and new leather. It boasts gorgeous intensity and terrific overall balance to match its classy, elegant personality." Robert Parker

Famoser Roter aus Nebbiolo und Barbera, der mit spannendem Bouquet, üppigem Geschmack und markanter Tanninkomponente die Aufmerksamkeit erregt. (superiore.de)

"Delivers ripe fruit, with lots of raisin and red licorice character on the nose and palate. Full-bodied, offering chewy yet polished tannins and a vanilla, blackberry and cherry aftertaste, with coffee and toasty oak. A blockbuster wine." Wine Spectator

Modernster Wein der gesamten Clerico-Palette ist der holzbetonte Barolo Pajana:
"The 2006 Barolo Pajana reveals incredible aromatic complexity and intensity, something this particular site isn't always capable of. There is lovely definition to be found as this classic feeling, mid-weight Pajana opens up in the glass. Layers of ripe dark fruit, spices, flowers, licorice and minerals develop seamlessly through to the close. I am floored by the wine's volume, depth and length. Quite simply, this is a magnificent effort from Clerico." Robert Parker

Der große Barolo Ciabot Mentin Ginestra aus dem historischen Clerico Weinberg.

"Full bodied, with velvety tannins and milk chocolate, and nutmeg character, with hints of hazelnut. Balanced and attractive." James Suckling

"The 2007 Barolo Ciabot Mentin is one of the greatest wines I have ever tasted at this address. Deep, sensual layers of fruit flow from the glass as this full-throttle, intense Barolo reveals its profound, breathtaking personality. The 2007 shows tons of Ginestra nuance, but with extra dimensions to the fruit that literally covers every nook and cranny of the palate. Tasting this next to the 2006 is quite a comparison, as both wines are fabulous. Readers who can should be sure to own bottles of both. A side-by-side comparison is sure to be fascinating as the wines develop over the coming years. Astute readers will note the slight name change here, which is the result of new regulations that require the use of the historic vineyard name, in this case Ginestra, or a proprietary name. Call me nostalgic, but it is sad to see one of the iconic labels in Barolo disappear." Robert Parker

"The 2007 Barolo Pajana is a showstopper. Waves of intense, beautifully delineated fruit flow onto the palate as the wine opens up in the glass. Sumptuous and elegant through and through, the Pajana shows marvelous delineation and clean, minerally notes that underpin the opulence of the fruit. This is a marvelous, totally complete Pajana of the highest level." Robert Parker 

"This is amazing on the nose with roses, plums, raspberries and currants. Full bodied, with beautiful balance and finesse and depth. What gorgeous fruit and texture." James Suckling

"The 2004 Barolo Percristina sweeps across the palate with masses of silky, dense fruit framed by firm, yet almost impossibly elegant tannins. This is an utterly captivating Barolo for its sheer power, richness and opulence. Despite the wine’s size, there is plenty of detail and nuance to explore in this utterly sensual, captivating Percristina. Readers lucky enough to find the 2004 Percristina should not hesitate, it is superb!" Robert Parker
