The Cerretta Cru: Power, Structure, and Elegance from Serralunga d’Alba
Giovanni Rosso’s Barolo DOCG ‘Cerretta’ is a masterful single-vineyard expression from one of the most celebrated Crus in Serralunga d’Alba. Sourced from a historic, south/south-east facing plot with chalky marl soils, this Nebbiolo delivers a wine of formidable structure and distinctive minerality, the signature of great Serralunga Barolo.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: A bright garnet red with ruby highlights.
- Nose: Complex and captivating. It immediately offers classic notes of violet, dried rose, and ripe cherry, layered with darker nuances of licorice, tobacco, camphor, and a hint of balsamic coolness.
- Palate: Powerful and deeply structured, yet beautifully balanced by a silky texture and vibrant acidity. The tannins are firm, enveloping, and remarkably elegant, ensuring an incredible aging potential. The finish is long, mineral-driven, and precise, showcasing the unique depth of the Cerretta Cru.
Pairing & Service
This exceptional Barolo demands equally rich and complex cuisine. We highly recommend decanting for at least two hours to allow its complex aromas to fully develop. Serve between 60-64°F (16-18°C).
