Barolo Percristina Domenico Clerico 2004 is a distinguished expression of Nebbiolo hailing from the Piedmont region. The Percristina vineyard, located in Monforte d’Alba, benefits from optimal exposure and unique soil composition, including limestone and clay. This wine showcases a complex profile, with notes of ripe cherry, tar and leather, complemented by earthy undertones and a firm tannic structure. Domenico Clerico has contributed significantly to the quality reputation of Barolo wines.

The 2004 Barolo Percristina sweeps across the palate with masses of silky, dense fruit framed by firm, yet almost impossibly elegant tannins. This is an utterly captivating Barolo for its sheer power, richness and opulence. Despite the wine’s size, there is plenty of detail and nuance to explore in this utterly sensual, captivating Percristina. Readers lucky enough to find the 2004 Percristina should not hesitate, it is superb! Anticipated maturity. 2014-2029. - Antonio Galloni

The 2004 Barolo Percristina is a bit more resolved than the Ciabot, yet, it, too, packs a serious punch. At the same time, the differences in pedigree between Ginestra and Mosconi are now quite evident as these two wines have taken slightly divergent paths. The Percristina is more marked by French oak, so the fruit is a bit less fresh and the wine is ever so slightly more evolved. In any other context, the 2004 Percristina would be dazzling. Here, it does play second fiddle, but not by much. A blast of mocha, raspberry jam, cinnamon and dried flowers hits the palate on the explosive finish.Antonio Galloni1st May 2015
