Description
Barolo Cerequio, still red wine, 14.5% ABV, produced by Beni di Batasiolo. 2016 vintage. A Barolo born in the Langhe, Piedmont, from a family that has been passionately involved in the world of wine for nearly fifty years. 100% Nebbiolo. With its unmistakable and unique aromas, it presents the balsamic, vegetal, floral, and spicy notes that make Barolo Cerequio instantly recognizable. It evokes hints of incense, wax, tobacco, and coffee that magically blend with a delicate, ethereal note. A deep garnet red wine with delicate orange highlights, it is remarkably persistent on the palate, full-bodied, elegant, harmonious, and balanced.

In these lands of oblique light and veiled mists, the Dogliani family has lived through the many changes in the recent history of these fields, which perhaps have seen more transformations in the last fifty years than over the centuries before.
In 1978, the Dogliani family purchased the historic Kiola winery with its seven "beni," or "estate," in the internationally renowned zone for growing the celebrated Nebbiolo da Barolo grape.
This is a place where, by tradition, the idea of "beni" takes on tangible value: the vines, the farmsteads, the people living and working there and the evocative landscape of soft, rolling hills and orderly vineyards.
This is the experience the wines of the Langhe have always offered the world. Read more
