97 Points - James Suckling, jamessuckling.com [May 2024]
The color is dense garnet with a vivid core. The nose is incredibly complex, with prunes, earth, bright licorice root, crushed violets, black truffles and a whiff of chocolate. On the palate, the preserved cherry and earth flavors are supported by crisp acidity and massive extracted tannins, with ripeness in the finish due to the great fruit concentration. Very savory and ready to drink if you like tannins, but will last easily for another decade or more. Better after 2028.

17/20 - Jancis Robinson [November 2023]
From their oldest vineyard, Mosconi. It has spent one year in barrique, five years in one large, 4,000-litre cask (as Domenico Clerico used to do) and then five years in bottle. They made this wine in 2010, 2011, 2014, 2015 and so on. Named for the Clericos’ daughter who died at the age of 15. The first real vintage was 1996. They skipped 2002, 2009, 2012, 2013 and 2018, generally dictated by quantity rather than quality.
Very complex nose. Very toasty and a style that somehow splits the difference between this and last century’s. Yet another successful wine from a controversial vintage! (JR)

About the Wine // From the Producer

In homage to their daughter, Domenico and Giuliana have chosen a wonderfully exposed plots to the south in the Mosconi cru, with the aim of creating their most important Barolo, capable of challenging time.

PERCRISTINA is a priceless tasting experience: a timeless Barolo, capable of marking generations of enthusiasts, passing through the years. The flagship of the cellar, a wine for expert connoisseurs of Barolo.

10 long years of aging are relived in the glass: it has a rare gustatory texture, a multitude of sensations and undertones, full of history, with a deep emotional and sentimental meaning; much more than a wine. PERCRISTINA is a work of art produced only in the best vintages.
