Domenico Clerico
About Domenico Clerico
Clerico rose to become a "giant of Barolo" (Decanter), having started to produce wine in 1979 after taking over his father’s vineyard three years earlier and today this small but historic estate is now managed by winemaker and General Director Oscar Arrivabene. The winery is now one of the most respected names in all Barolo not only for their extremely high-quality wines but also for showcasing exceptional expression of the terroirs of their outstanding vineyard holdings in four of the greatest Crus of Monforte; Ginestra, Bussia, Pajana and Mosconi.

This wine was not produced in 2012. The excellent 2013 Barolo Aeroplan Servaj (with fruit from the clay soils of Baudana in Serralunga d'Alba) is a powerful, generous and dramatic wine that promises a very long drinking future ahead. The fruit is dark, rich and exuberant. There is a touch of black cherry sweetness that is very specific to this growing site and the heavier soils that characterize it. At this young stage, the wine is slightly austere and rigid, especially in terms of mouthfeel. This is completely expected, especially in a cool vintage such as 2013. The wine needs time to unfold and blossom like a rose.Inc. GSTSG$1,089.37
