The 2020 Barolo Cerretta is a potent, packed wine. Today, the tannins are especially imposing and also larger in scale than the other Barolos in this range. Dark red-toned fruit, orange peel, white pepper and crushed rocks all race out of the glass. This is a wine for those with patience.

The Cerretta Cru (purchased in 2008) is north of the township of Serralunga, which lies above Prapo and next to Baudana. Where Cascina Francia and Arione have more limestone, Cerretta has more clay, elevation, orientation, and, aspect are similar between the two. Soil type becomes a defining factor in the wine.
