Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The organic 2018 Barolo Brunate is angular and firm. Despite the softer character of the vintage, you still feel the tannins and the structure of this celebrated MGA site. There is balsam herb, dried lavender, rose and candied cherry. The wine is generous and round.

Features

Description

The wine Ceretto Barolo Brunate is a symbol of the cultural tradition of Piedmont and therefore enjoys an undisputed worldwide fame.

Winemaking

This Barolo is produced in the territory of the municipality of La Morra, both for the cultivation of the vine and for the production of wine. It is made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, reaching an alcohol content of 14.50%. The Brunate vineyard is one of the most representative of the municipality of La Morra and has always been considered one of the reference toponyms for the whole denomination. It is an inter-municipal vineyard covering a total of 28 hectares. The soils, belonging to the Tortonian period, are characterised by the presence of sandy loams, especially in the highest part of the hill. The Ceretto family owns just over 5.5 hectares in Brunate, which it uses exclusively for the production of this exceptional wine. The wine is aged in 300-litre French oak (with 10% new oak) for 12 months, followed by 24 months in Austrian oak barrels.

Taste

Ceretto Barolo Brunate has a garnet colour with broad, deep orange reflections. Its aroma is intense, with notes of violet, small red fruits and balsamic hints. On the palate, it is intense, elegant and persistent, with flavours of red fruits, tobacco and liquorice. With ageing, its flavour improves, adding aromas of truffle and cinnamon. It is a wine of great character, ideal to accompany roasted meats, stewed game and truffle and mushroom dishes.
