Ceretto Barolo Bricco Rocche

Barolo

Intense fragrant rose petals, this has such delicate structure that you could easily dive in now, but it will keep getting more succulent over the next five years as the tannins soften further. Touch of gunsmoke reduction on the opening, opens to show rosebuds, elderflower, cumin and crunchy red fruits. A monopole 1.46ha vineyard, Alessandro Ceretto owner and winemaker.

Inside Bordeaux

A monopole 1.46ha vineyard completing this lovely trio of wines from the Ceretto family. Orange peel, rosebud and raspberry leaf, steely minerality, a little subdued suggesting higher structure than the other two in the lineup, offering balance and finesse, and a mouthwatering finish. Totally charming, with curls of sage and woodsmoke. Winemaking Alessandro Ceretto, from Barolo's smallest MGA.

Clear floral edging, peony and raspberry leaf spiraling out of the glass, totally gorgeous wine that manges to be both steely and delicate. Fine tannins with a kick of savoury white pepper and sage spice, totally knockout with a whisp of a tar and smoke finish, well balanced and enticing, love it. First time on the Place this year for this 1.46ha in Castiglione Falletto. Bricco Rocche is Barolo's smallest MGA, and is a monopole of the Ceretto family.
