Wow congratulations, both are beauties and the medium is such a great wearable size.First, the semi-bad news:
I'm still waiting to hear back from my outlet SA about the Dark Barolo. Apparently it's labeled in their system for assessment, which, per my outlet SA, means that BV is sitting on it and pondering whether they want to release it for sale, or keep it in their holdings/archive for reference.
Second, the good news:
On Black Friday I did some serious hunting for another medium cervo loo, and Lo and behold, I scored my second one for an absurdly good deal on Tradesy! (Tradesy has a denim one right now too.) Considering how it was described by the seller, I don't think they really understood what they had, or the price would have been higher; immediately after I saw the listing, I snatched it up. She's been gently broken in, so the shoulder strap is softer than my Nero, but she's in wonderful condition, with a pristine interior.
I was super curious about the color (Shadow? Dark Cement?), so I asked my SA to look up the serial number. She said the color is indeed Dark Cement, from 2018, and my SA speculated that it was a relatively limited run.
I'm thrilled to introduce the newest and fourth member of my BV family- Dark Cement Medium Cervo Loop. Here are pics of her being inspected by kitty, and cuddling with her Nero sister. I love how the raw edge at the opening contrasts with her body color!

Thank you, Nibb! I thought of your pretty two-tone New Steel + Dark Cement bag, when my SA confirmed that mine was all-over Dark Cement. I think it makes us fraternal bag twins.
Aww, thank you! Now I just need to find one more in Dark Barolo, so we can be bag twins!
I need one in dark cement now, I'd prefer it personally over the new steel/dark cement combo, pretty as it is.Aww, thank you! Now I just need to find one more in Dark Barolo, so we can be bag twins!

I LOVE my steel & cement bag but it does have wardrobe limits, dark cement will be a great load and go anywhere bag, I think all of us Cervo people are fraternal bag twins, I miss TM cervo bags the most we need to treasure the ones we all have.
I have a feeling you will have one within two weeks
I have to admit, this is the first time I’ve seen the dark cement. Have you seen any other than this one?Nicely said! You're making me feel all warm and fuzzy. Or is it warm and smooshy, like our beloved cervo?
