A splendid amphitheatre of vineyards on the balcony of the Langhe, Cerequio is one of the most prestigious crus of the Langhe. The soil, heavy with magnesium, limestone and clay, yields wines that are tannic, robust, and powerful. Damilano’s Cerequio has a rich and complex nose, with notes of cherry, violet, balsamic and liquorice.  On the palate, it is full-bodied and masculine, with flavors of dark berries, notes of dried roses, and goudron, meaning “tarry” but actually a warm, ethereal, minerally note that is reminiscent of hot stones.
