Description

The 2019 Barolo Cerretta is stunning already, offering wonderful floral notes as well as pure red fruits and delicate, smoky incense. It is linear and persistent but remains elegant, with notable but refined tannins. Tightly coiled and energetic, with blood orange, bergamot, and crushed stones, this rocky, vibrant red can be enjoyed 2026-2046+.

Roberto Conterno is known for his unmatched attention to detail as well as his incredible work ethic as he continues to raise the bar on every minute detail of the viticultural and winemaking process at this esteemed estate. The estate owns vineyards in three of the top Crus in the commune of Serralunga, having added Cerretta in 2008 and Arione in 2015. The Conterno style of Barolo has always been ultra-traditional, with a long maceration followed by extended aging in large, oak casks (botti). In the old days, aging was anywhere from four to ten years prior to bottling, and often longer, sometimes with multiple bottlings from the same vintage. Today, the “regular” Barolos are aged for four years before bottling, and the Monfortino for six to seven years – the only “modernist” concession in the entire vinification and aging
