Barolo Cerretta Vigna Bricco Riserva, a still red from Piedmont, 14.5% ABV, produced by Elio Altare. 0.75 L bottle, 2019 vintage. A Barolo Riserva made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes from the Cerretta vineyard in the municipality of Serralunga d’Alba. A wine of great character, the result of careful vinification and aging that enhances its complexity. Maceration on the skins in a temperature-controlled rotofermenter for 4-5 days. Aged in French barriques (30% new) for 24 months. Notes of spice, licorice, tobacco, balsamic, and menthol. Bright ruby red color with garnet highlights. Warm, with powerful and structured tannins.
