The 2007 Barolo Villero is quite a bit more muscular than the Cerequio. It also appears to have handled the consistent warmth of the year better. Dark cherries, plums, menthol, spices and licorice meld together nicely in this powerful, insistent Barolo. There is plenty of energy here to support another decade of fine drinking.
The colour is very intense, ruby red. On the nose it offers aromas of ripe forest fruits and undertones of vanilla while on the palate this wine is close-texture, mouth-filling with aromas of ripe raspberries and blackberries.
