Description
 
In 1977 Domenico Clerico decided to leave his job as a salesman in order to work full time in his family's estate. Domenico is a self-taught man and started his activity as a vigneron following the advice of his producer friends and experimenting in his cellar. At the beginning of the eighties he met Marco de Grazia who started marketing his wine in the US in 1983. In the meantime Domenico purchased vineyards in some of the most interesting crus of Monforte: Ginestra, Pajana, Mosconi and Bussia. Clerico is today a recognized star among Barolo producers.

The 2008 Arte (90% Nebbiolo, 10% Barbera) emerges from the glass with freshly cut roses, cherries, spices and licorice. The wine shows quite a bit of freshness and brightness, qualities that aren’t so apparent in many 2008 Nebbiolo and Nebbiolo-based wines. A wonderful sense of florality is woven throughout, leading to a refined, impeccably polished finish. The 2008 is way too young, but it is a fabulous wine that only needs a few more years in the cellar. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. WA91 (2008)
