Lors de notre séjour à Monferrato notre vin préféré fut le barolo ciabot mentin 2009
J'ai trouvé ceci sur le net :


Domenico Clerico Description
Clerico is one of the most respected names in Barolo, and Domenico Clerico's wines are renowned for both high quality winemaking and for exceptional regional character. His outstanding vineyard holdings include four of the greatest crus of Monforte: Ginestra, Bussia, Pajana and Mosconi. This offering is perhaps the most representative wine of the estate, Ciabot Mentin Ginestra, which comes from vines planted at 400 meters with south to southeast exposure, giving the wine its characteristic explosive aromas of ripe red fruit, licorice and mint. Aged in oak barriques (90% new) for 22-24 months, the 2009 produced 1500 cases.

Wine Advocate: 94+ Points
One notch down on the intensity ladder is the 2009 Barolo Ciabot Mentin. Less obvious and definitely more flirtatious, this gorgeous wine playfully dangles subtle hints of licorice, dark fruit, anisette and Middle Eastern spice in front of your nose. They morph and transform into something new and unexpected with each swirl of the glass. There’s enough flesh here to keep the wine grounded, but there’s also enough tonic freshness to keep it from feeling heavy. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2028.

Stephen Tanzer: 93+ Points
Medium red. Less roasted than the Briccotto, offering aromas and flavors of cherry, mocha, coffee and spices. Less fat and full in the mouth but shows more lift and energy. A bit youthfully clenched, but the wine's firm tannic spine and impressive length suggest it will be a beauty with a few years of aging. Despite being situated at high altitude, these are the first Barolo vines Clerico picks. The acidity here is a very healthy 6.3 grams per liter.

Wine Spectator: 92 Points
A fresh, vibrant red, with notes of eucalyptus, tea, cherry and leather notes are backed by dense, ripe tannins. Balanced on the firm side, with a coating of dusty tannins on the long finish. Give this some time. Best from 2017 through 2032. 1,500 cases made.
J'ai souligné les descriptions qui me parlaient. On pourrait rajouter de la violette selon le sommelier qui nous l'a conseillé. Le mot Ciabot correspondrait à guérite (petite cabane dans un vignoble)

Mais de rien. Nous avons également goûté un très bon barbaresco de Vietti si mes souvenirs sont bons.
