Giovanni Rosso – Barolo Cerretta – 2017

Barolo Cerretta comes from the vineyard having the same name, located in the northern part of Serralunga commune, it has always been considered a great vineyard and it has been mentioned by the most historical and important producers of Barolo. What distinguishes this cru from the other mentions of Serralunga, is just the soil: here there are layers of agglomerates slightly rich in clay and limestone, as opposed to rocky marls, giving wines more feminine sensations and sweeter tannins. In this case the vines are about 30 years old and the wine was aged for 24 months in large French oak casks, plus two years in bottle.
A Barolo with more immediate aromas and silky tannins but with a long persistence in the mouth.
A great bottle which plays all on refinement.
