Barolo Ciabot Mentin Ginestra 2007 from Domenico Clerico epitomises the essence of its renowned vineyard. The name reflects the historical significance of the land, with Ciabot referring to a workers` shelter amid the vines. This vintage presents a complex structure, featuring layers of dark fruit alongside herbal notes and earthy undertones. Its robust tannins provide a firm backbone, while the finish lingers with a touch of minerality. Domenico Clerico, a pioneer in modern Barolo production, emphasises respectful vineyard practices in his approach.

Vinous
Dark medium red color. Less fruity on the nose today than the Pajana, hinting at menthol and minerals. Less rich and sweet too, in a distinctly backward style for the vintage. But there's outstanding volume here and a hint of almost marzipan-like ripeness. Huge, broad tannins coat the incisors and front teeth. This will need extended cellaring.
