2019 Barolo, Cerretta, Giovanni Rosso, Piedmont, Italy

Description

This 37-year-old site sits at almost 400 metres altitude, in an east-facing amphitheatre at the crest of Serralunga’s spine. White calcareous soils mixed with richer, darker ones give it a more generous expression than Giovanni Rosso’s other wines, with more pulp on the palate. The wine underwent long maceration in cement, and three years in Slovenian botti grande. This is complete and compact, with fine earthy fruit, a dark rose scent, and heady spices interwoven with white soil tension.

Critics reviews

Jane Anson MW 95/100
Love the delicacy and the power, the thirst-quenching beauty of this wine, with liqourice root, rose petals and autumnal red fruits. Such depth and quality, spellbinding texture, tannin quality and grip. Classic Cerretta cru, structured and powerful but delicate, needs time in bottle to fully uncurl. The first year on the Place for a wine that was started in 1994 by Davide Rosse, using vineyards in Serralunga d'Alba that had been owned by his family for years but sold to other producers. 6.5ha. Winemaker Andrea Delpiano. Ageing in 25hl or 50hl French oak casks from Fontainebleau forest.Drink 2025 to 2040jane_anson_mw, janeanson_com (August 2022)

Concentrated and finely perfumed at the same time. Raspberry fruit with a hint of orange. A palate of succulent raspberry fruit with lots of supple acidity and beautiful, coating tannins absorbing the lush fruit. Complete. Drink 2026–2042Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com (November 2022)

After 30 to 36 months in big oak casks, this 2019 vintage of one of Serralunga's most celebrated MGAs shines for its restrained nose of Parma violets, wild strawberry, orange juice and a super-intense, stunning rhubarb root character. It's floral as well on the palate, elegant and refined, very classic, with polished, velvety tannins that are dusty on the finish. The structure defies time here; the potential is great.Drink 2024-2050Aldo Fiordelli, Decanter (February 2023)
