From the Cerretta vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba, this Barolo shows an intense garnet red color with rich fruit, licorice, rose, and violet aromas accented by light toasty notes. Full and dry on the palate, it has soft, velvety tannins backed by red cherry, raspberry, and hints of tobacco.
Cerretta's Serralunga power shows through in full force here — a Barolo built for the cellar as much as the table.
