2018 Barolo, Ceretto, Piedmont, Italy

Description

This wine comes from four hectares spread across Barolo, Castiglione Falletto, La Morra and Serralunga – a classic blend of high-quality ingredients. There are grapes from the Brunate vineyard site in the La Morra proportion, and the Serralunga fruit is from the Gabutti site. There is even a small amount from the Bricco Rocche site. It has a very lifted and expressive bouquet, engaging, with a little bite and spice. The plump red fruit billows on the palate over a neat line of firm tannin. Drink 2022-2032.

Critics reviews

Antonio Galloni 88-90/100

The 2018 Barolo is very pretty and light on its feet. Sweet floral and spice accents lend lovely aromatic presence. In keeping with the style of the year, this is an especially ethereal, weightless wine.

Drink 2023 - 2030

About this wine

Barolo

Barolo

Piedmont's most famous wine DOCG (Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita), Barolo is renowned for producing Italy's finest reds from 100 percent Nebbiolo. The Barolo appellation was formalised in 1966 at around 1,700 hectares, and has an exceptional terroir with almost every village perched on its own hill. The climate is continental, with an extended summer and autumn enabling the fickle Nebbiolo to achieve perfect ripeness.
